Hello from the Critique Club,
You asked for your shot to be critiqued by a member of the Club.
This is a great shot, it is almost right in focus and for this particular challenge would have worked better if the bird was slightly more out of focus. Your colours are strong and rich, sharpness is excellent.
 Dahkota said everything you really need to know about this shot. |

| this is strictly my opinion. For this challenge, the image works - focus on the bird was missed but the bird definitely is the subject. As far as images go, this is a good snap, but the interest doesn't go beyond that. Its a good capture of a moment in time and interesting to glance at, but it has no lasting impact on a viewer. there is nothing to keep one here looking for more than a moment. For DPC in general, the voters are going to mark you down with the indea that the background is too busy. DPC prefers empty backgrounds and likes images simple (just check the majority of challenge winners). For a DPC challenge, if I had been shooting, I would have tried to get much tighter in on the bird, by moving, zooming, and cropping, so there is much less for the viewer to remark upon. You also might hear that you need to straighten your horizon - the vertical lines in the back of the image are slanted to the left. DPC voters hate that. I don't think you'll get the brown - there are many images in the challenge that aren't half as good as this but I don't think you'll score in the top 30 either. In the end, it is a good capture of what you captured, it just doesn't have much value outside the challenge to keep viewer interest. |

| I see motion blur on the parakeet, but the focus on him is nice and sharp. I can't see any way that the OOF background is intended as the subject. |

| Nice shot. It doesn't really say 'missed focus' to me. |
