Not sure that super shallow DOF was what this challenge was going for? Especially without something in the bg to look at, be drawn into. Couple of things from a photography viewpoint, IMO ... the bird is very tight to the upper right corner and could use some breathing room and then the tail feathers are not fully captured. Last thing is the sensor dust spots. Those can be legally fixed in post simply with a healing brush.

Beautiful the coloration between the bird, the stem it is perched on and the background make the whole image wonderful.

A HUGE product ad but I must say really well done. Very nice work and 1 word says it all. A perfect Billboard for this product.

Seems quite harsh. Any reason for not putting a title on this?

Fun mix. Lighting is a tad harsh.

NIce photo. Not sure of the tradition. A title may have helped some?

The quality of the photo is just not good enough for a good score, I fear.

I've entered stuff after only looking at it on my phone instead of my computer and was sorry I did. *sigh*

Good idea for the shot, though!
