Use what you've got!! The lines are good the subject is good and overall it is creative. I would suggest that if you are not going to use the reflection for visual purposes to support the photo however, that you try to use a polarizing filter and be careful of your focus.

I think people are looking for real birds in this challenge. This might be better if there were no reflections.

the reflection is very distracting.

I am afraid that this doesn't work for me, I find the reflections distracting

I'm not fond of the reflection in the glass, it distracts from the subject of the bird. I do see some good effort to compose and crop the shot well.

I'm not sure what you were going for here, but the reflections in the glass are a bit distracting and the bright highlights in the background windows draw the eye from the main subject.

The reflection in the glass could have been eliminated with a polarizer. It is very distracting.

Very abstract.

Without the reflection, this could have been a more interesting shot.

hahaha - this is funny!

This scares me. I'd imagine it might scare small children as well. But then you see the giraffe and zebra legs and realize that any parrot/giraffe/zebra combination couldn't possibly be harmful. Or could it??
01/28/2008 06:13:50 PM
umm, the parrot seems to have giraffe legs and a head growing out of his right side and some sort of butt of an animal too. Sorry, I can not score this high. It is a bird though

I guess it technically meets the challenge but not necessarily what I am looking for from it.
01/28/2008 03:45:16 PM
Hmm interesting shot. The reflection is weird. Maybe this was taken at a zoo.

uninteresting subject and POV, disturbing reflections and background objects
