this is an interesting composition. while i appreciate your humor, i think you missed a great opportunity in this challenge with your model. her expression, shot from below, would just scream "Don't Question Me!". as is, i'll give it a grin and wonder, just how does one punish a bad flamingo?

I like the soft focus. However, it doesn't fit the picture's subject.

The overexposed window is a problem.

Cute, but...

This is really funny. The woman and flamingo are great, but the background is sort of plain. I would have prefered to see the woman scolding the flamingo in its "natural environment" -- e.g. the front lawn of a Florida style house or mobile home. Still, this shows a lot of creativity. I give it a solid 9.

too much neatimage

a cute idea, but leans dangerously toward snapshot territory. NeatImage or somethins similar appears to have been a little overused.

this shot would do better if the stuffed bird was a real kid.

IMO-very poor composure
