Excellent clarity and DOF. I like how the red "stripes" frame the bird.

I certainly hope you plan to put a book together of your work - your images are lovely. I really like the reds here and the way you've used the foreground grass and that awesome bokeh to frame your bird.

Great isolation between the foreground and background.

Very sharp and good bokeh. The background 'blur' looks like it might have been sharpened too much and would have looked nicer if it was a little softer but it could also be the lens. All in all a very nice image!

Excellent! I like how the red flowers frame him.

Excellent shot! An Audubon image all the way. The DOF and bokeh are perfect, separating the bird from the background effectively. The bird is in good focus and the composition is terrific.
