Greetings from the Critique Club!
Hi Carl, nice to meet you.
I'm not sure why you applied the blur, at all. I don't know that it added anything, but I'd have to see the sharper image. The blur here does nothing for me.
Also, why not pull back a bit from the bird, get more of the bird in front of the sun and shoot the whole curvature of the neck? It would seem a good plan.
The light is a bit bright, a bit harsh. Maybe if there were other background elements such as the sky or a horizon, we'd have more perspective.
Good luck and keep shooting!

Sorry about the title I meant to put flamingo. Message edited by author 2004-04-27 19:19:13.

You've been a good sport about the title. Some people have no sense of humor.
Nice Silhouette.

Odd but rather nice picture. It looks more like a plastic flamengo to me than a swan.

Painful on the eyes! Yikes. Little too bright. :)

The light is too drastic for my liking. I like the subject and composition - would have liked to see it with subtler light and sharper.

You probably mean flamingo instead of swan. The image is very unsharp and the head still has so much light that one can see it is a fake.

I'm sorry, but this is way too bright and fuzzy for me.

A silhouette maybe, but the OOF and the glare is a bit much.

Great colors. Noce shapes. Think it needs sharper edges to make it truly effective.
