I'm sorry to see this one finish where it did. This is really nice. It's as if you looked this bird up in the encyclopedia and saw this photo in the description. Great job!

This picture makes me feel a calmness. I like how the bird is the focus,the reeds/long grass are blurred as well as the water in back which leves all the attention and focus on the bird as it should be. Very good pic.

Nicely composed, though a bit tight to the bottom right. A touch dark though that works ok in this one. 7

beautiful bird, could be a bit sharper, nice use of dodging and burning of the edges.

Really a beautiful image. I love the composition and colors. The clarity is a little off (IMHO) - probably due to the close crop. Still, an exceptional shot. Nice job! (8) And I like the border...

Very nice, the vignetting (sp?) is nice, but the double border might be a bit much.

Nice shot. I like how the graceful lines of the bird are echoed in the grasses behind him.
