Congrats on your best-scoring photograph to date, as well as a top 30 finish. Your focus is dead on and the composition near flawless. Looking through your past challenges, this is one of your best entries. I think the only reason this image fell outside of the top ten is because of the cliche you chose. The title really makes the viewer strain to look at the eyes, whereas a title similar to "fly like a bird" may have guided the viewer to look more at the entire image. That's the way this site goes. You can submit a near-perfect image, but get hung out to dry with the title. I would have still scored this one in the 7-8 range, as all the elements come together to draw the viewer into the photo. Nice work.
wow - what a capture. you are almost too close - i think this could be an even better photo if cropped differently. needs a bit more room at the bottom and less at the top. Still, a great photo though.
