Wish the birds beak was not dipping into the border. I find the border slightly distracting as well, may have worked better without it.

Better if left unframed. Nice shot.

Nice shot, great POV. Interesting composition.

Great shot, only thing I don't care for is the border so close to his beak. 9

This is cropped a little too tightly on the beak.

cropping sucks, and doesn't fit challenge

The frame is cropped too close. it shouldn't touch the beak

This HAS to win the top ribbon. Just a fantastic picture! Absolutely my favorite of the challenge.

too bad the nose dive is right into the frame! Great capture. Probably the best seagull shot I've seen in quite some time.

Too tight cropped on the bottom,looks like is doing a nose stand!

This is so close to spectacular! If that bird had just a little space to dive into, it would be a masterpiece. Meanwhile, you are to be complimented in getting such a clear, stop action shot.

The framing kinda ruins an otherwise good shot in my opinion. The beak pressed up against the line seems a bit out of place.

The border detracts from the lower left of the photo. Nice colors.

Hum, not sure I understand the tight crop on the left....?? his bill is on the frame.

great picture. composition wise and everything. but i dont like the border..sort of looks like you are cropping too close to his beak with it

nicely done, would like a bit more room under the beak, great timing

Really would have liked to see this without the frame or the beak going past it
nice shot

a super fast capture. But why have you framed it so his beek is right on the frame? Needs some space.

ooh lovely shot. leaving a dash of space between the border and the beak woulda done it for me

Cropped just too tight at the beak, otherwise great!

Nice interpretation. Pity about the tip of the beak being lost but well captured nevertheless.

well this COULD have been a really good photo.. but that border.. it JUST snips the nose off the bird... i think i woul dhave liked it without the border.. or with a larger crop before the border.

i don't think i like the beak actually touching the border.. its actually quite distracting for me.
02/11/2004 01:16:18 AMPost actions
I understand it, but that beak is just too close to your frame.
