Wow, great use of lighting. It's a very attractive subject. The bokeh is very nice. Crisp focus everywhere except for a few strands in the upper left. Given DPC's usual tendency to slam lack of sharpness, I'd have been tempted to crop the photo so it is vertical, but I suppose this might do too much violence to that glorious luminescent crown. |

Nicely framed, it looks like part of the feathers got blown out. Otherwise a very nice shot. - 7 |

Nice work on this one. You did a great job isolating just the crane and eliminating the background. Good work. |

Lovely bird it looks like it has make-up on and it has a really nice coy expression.
i like the way the feathers on the crown are back lit and contrast with the indistinct dark background. |

Would have been stronger if you didn't cut of the crown. |

This might have more impact if shot from a different angle, using more negative space around the head and feathers. I like the coloring. Maybe off center the subject as well. |

Since I am lacking in technical skills, I cannot give helpful comments. I am strictly a photo buff who is trying to improve, but as to telling you what is wrong or right, I am in no position to say. I am simply voting based on whether I like the picture or not. Sorry, maybe someday I will be able to give helpful advice |

Fantastic. Well lit (not that you had control of that) . A1 exposure. Not out of place in Nat Geo. Only one thing is anoying.... it's a shame the top is cut off. |
