*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*
An appealing image that barely meets the challenge brief
You have a nicely executed image of an appealing subject but your position in relation to it is only marginally above it simply due to your own height to it, in other words to meet the challenge I think you needed to be in an elevated position which is much more apparent than yours here. Perhaps your intention was to convey the birds position above its prey but I would suggest that the somewhat lower than deserved score reflects this aspect in relation to the challenge brief itself.
I find the image itself very appealing, the exposure is good, the composition is also good, the colours are good. I particularly like the reflections and the interesting detail in the water. The focus has the eyes nice and sharp and the shallow DOF isolates the bird nicely from the background and foreground, though a wide open aperture would have given a shallower DOF which would probably have improved the small section of background above his back.
Thank you for your submission, Sid |
