Colors look like they could use a slight adjustment but not sure if I'd like to see that thing in true living color...yuck. Looks much better fried up and on my plate lol. Focus seems a bit soft too but I'm guessing you couldn't just ask him to sit still for a sec.
I don't know how somthing so ugly could possibly get a blue ribbon. But then again after a few ours in a oven they do tend to look quite appealing. Great texture, and very well done shot. But I still say thats one Fugly bird.
yiiiiiikkes... the turkeys are invading DPC.
has texture, could be sharper (back of neck), background change or different angle would be better in my opinion.
