Nice dramatic image with rich color. I am intrigued to know what this horrible parrot is writing about. What evils have those big red eyes seen? I bet this is a pretentious indie horror movie, but I still want to see it!
It seems like you bumped the contrast up sky high. The eye is like its been painted red in Microsoft Paint. I like the composition though but I think the post proccessing didn't do much for the picture.
Never a fan of the parrot shots, but I just love this one. The background is what really does it for me. Great DOF. The sharpness is terrific and the red/green combination really takes it home for me. If you think about it, the title is funny, but I can actually see it as a movie.
what I am looking for in this challenge is for a creative 'wow' shot that would go on a movie poster. I think that's what the challenge is all about...this would work ok
