I like sense of motion with this photo. It seems a good number of photos freezed their birds in place but you didn't and it worked out really well. Nice focus on the crow itself. Nice work, good luck in the challenge.
Very good capture. Focus on the crow is VERY good. Framing seems O.K., but a landscape view with a tad more space to the left might have been a touch better. 10 Rob the Swash
Nice capture though perhaps a little oversharpened. As with a number of shots in this challenge, I think it is always preferable to see the bird's face if possible. I know it's to always easy to capture a bird flying towards you but I think this one of the things that could be improved. The clumps of seaweed detract as well. I have given you a five because, despite some compostional problems, I think that you are not far off a good shot here. If you would like to discuss this shot further after the challenge let me know.
Good Luck, Todd. 5
Good moving camera capture in this image. One of the few in the challenge. A touch too much sharpen or unsharp mask applied, but is a superior capture and is framed well.
Beautiful sense of flight. Great vivid image very sharp. Blurring background really gives a sense of speed also. Good shadows in the feathers makes a bold statement.
