Wonderful image. The muted soft background really brings out the drama of the bird, very well done!

A very striking image, the bird is well captured and the background adds a lot of impact to it.

There's not much I can say except for WOW. Incredible capture. I think this will "Soar" in the Challenge. Great work.

oh this is pretty, i like the faint trees in the distance, makes me feel like he's flying in a snow storm. too bad for the bit of grain in the bird, its not too bad though. great crop, it uses the rule of thirds nicely

OK focus wise...looks a bit overexposed

Nice sharp focus on the bird, paired with the nicely blurred background. The coloring implies winter, and helps with the attention remaining on the bird. Very good!

Oh, this is nice. I like how you've focused my attention on the bird because of the high contrast with the background. Beautiful sight, makes me want to be there to see it.

"To Draw"
Looks like a drawing
If you could produce a set of these in the same style I could imagine them adorning the walls of a country pub. good luck
