I did have hopes for this little picture. I should know by now not to do that.

I did so love this picture. Still do. Just a wee bit sad it didn't translate to anyone else.

This is truly fantastic. If I had one small critique, and I'm not sure its a critique so much as a curiosity on my part and that is that I think I might like it better as a square crop, The symmetry of the posts is perfect and I think I would love to see that carried through to the crop, with the one element being asymmetrical (the bird). Still a gorgeous shot.

I was your 9. I really thought this would score higher! There are so many things i like about it. Not just the framing and the colours, but also the emotions it conveys.

What do they know. This was in my top 10% for the Free Study. The three shot together is excellent.
