Wowing mesmerized me with the big eyes for voting high scores but I don't hear him hooting at all. I realy want that beak to speak. I guess that is why nature photographers are such a patient lot waiting day's, weeks and plus that we in a challenge don't have. If his/her beak were open, I would have given a 7 to 9 score for sure. Nice clear bird photo. Good luck.

I scored this low, simply based on the exposure issues (but, added a point because you got the eyes so well.) 4

Like the colours and the bold image works well for the challenge - Nice

Comment by Yo_Spiff:
A little too much JPG compression is bringing down this otherwise nice scene. 116k is not excessively tiny, but for such a detailed image it is squishing it down a bit too much. One can see some compression artifacts around the high contrast edges of the lighthouse, and there is an overall lack of detail and clarity to the rest of the image. Compression kills detail. Always use the least compression you can get away with and still come in under challenge limits.

I like the texture and simplicity of this composition. It works!

very nice, great lines, love the clear blue sky; lighting a bit harsh, maybe this should have been taken at a different time of day

Does not do it for me in regard to the perspective side of the challenge. Good take and I'm sure the meaning is there for many.

The perspective is there because of good dof but I find the image rather uninspiring. 5

out of focus, maybe a black background would have worked better
