From the Critique Club:
Outside of the cups which can be cropped out at the loss of some shoulders, this is a very good composition. It is a fun shot and the clear blue sky adds an ideal background. Regarding the challenge extraordinay, there are other meanings which creep up, such as bizzare, fantastic and the grotesque. Then, we all seem to have our own definitions and the confusion mounts. One will ask, well, if the bird were real. then....ah, but then it would be a different picture.
What you chose to do here is add a little levity. The composition is strong because you chose this good angle and put the bird right in the man's face. I believe you are on the right track and look forward to your other entries. The use of a simple reflector would have help with some fill light, otherwise your exposure is good and you have good texture.
Personally, I loaded the wrong file for this project and you can go and beat up on me.
To bad about those plastic cups. or whatever that is in the lower, left corner. Still, it's a fun photo and a good composition. A bit more to the left and we'd see the guy's expression.
