Wow, I've never seen one in this way - great shot. I like the framing a lot.

nice shot, but the bird should be a little more centered, or at least not cutoff on the side... it almost seems like it just kinda jumped in and got in the way of the picture, instead of actually being the center of attention in the image

Such an interesting looking bird. I would have cropped in closer.

I think technically this is good. The background is a bit of a distraction but the head on of the bird is the biggest flaw. I know you had little control on how the bird would sit for you.... :) Good work just wrong angle.

Composition leaves a lot to be desired since bird is not completely in frame and foliage to the right really adds nothing to the picture thematically.

a bit somber?

Nice attitude. Made me smile. Title detracts, or at least doesn't add.

He doesn't look very happy about having his picture taken! LOL I really like the way this is offset and the personality of the shot.

Nice colors and a beautiful bird. I particularly like the use of depth of field. It suits the image well. I would have liked to see the entire bird rather than cropping the right wing however.

nice composition, but the lighting is abit flat, low contrast type of thing.

Nice portrait, but saturation seems to be low.

Looks good.

Gorgeous bird. Unfortunately the background is a bit distracting. To blur the background more a larger aperture is required (small number). This would make the depth of field shallower.
