Difficult lighting conditions. The shadow on the face is not ideal but strangely adds interest. Good choice going for the mono conversion. Street photography is usually to complex for colour

What?? He was like that when I found him!

Don't quite get what you concept you are trying to convey. From the title, I assume its the bird making the discovery of Drew, but its difficult to figure out what exactly. Horrible flash lighting shadows

Entertaining but I feel unable to rate it highly. Good luck with the brown

Seat Belts On!

A lovely wide angle is a little cliche for planes but works so well. Lovely sky colours and foreground detail. Perhaps a lower camera positon to the ground would have increased the foreground effect for an even more striking image. Perfect composition in terms of position of the plane in the image and allowing enough empty space on the right hand side for it to "fly" into

Spoilt only by the background. If this had been taken from ground level you might have been able to get the sky as the background which would have made for a much cleaner, neutral composition, putting the focus plainly on the bird and also you would have had an amazing angle

The Last Drop

Comment:
Cropping in on the drop might not be a bad idea. It is quite small and a little lost against the vast black background. To be able to see the reflection of the leaf in the drop would have been great

Triumph!

Great sharpness, uncomplicated background and unless this bird was in an avary or hovering around all day you might only have had a very short period to get this right, unlike the people that can setup a dripping tap and shoot splashes for hours. Great colours, well exposed, a bit more open space on the left to put the bird a third in from the right, plus, the bird appears be moving from right into space on the left and so this might have improved composition two-fold. The best entry I've seen so far

Coming Down

Great colours. The feeling of suspended motion is rather lost though, the plane takes up a very small percentage area of the image.

Tumbling Dice

What were you thinking with that background, its far too distracting, a nice simple, neutral background would have been far superior. The colours in the background are dull and really let the main subject down. Perhaps if you had greater DOF to make the dice sharper and the background more blurred, then converted to mono / duotone and push the contrast hard then IMO this might have been saved.

In Full Flight

Composition wise, the head is in the centre and even the percieved centre of mass is towards the centre. Having more open space on the right hand side would place the bird a third in from the left (rule of thirds) and have a nice open space to "fly into" which is a double winner for composition. Nice sharp capture though and uncomplicated background so nice and simple with no distractions
