With harvesting, galahs and cockies are everywhere. It is great to see them fly above, circling and changing direction. I was lucky to get the galah in centre stage.

Hi Linda,

Thanks heaps for your time in writing the critique for me.
Your comments were very generous and encouraging.
The pink one was a galah amongst the other white cockies.

Yes, the "pattern" was stretched.

I had just taken it, and off on holidays the next day. When I saw the pattern category I couldn't help myself but put it in anyway as I don't often get a picture I am so happy with.

I guess this is wasting peoples time a bit, not truly fitting the category.

Cheers,
Annie

** Greetings from the Critique Club **

What a stunning capture! I love the clarity of the birds flying over head, especially with just the one showing it's colors. Great focus! Colors are also very sharp - vivid. Truly impressive. Composesd perfectly also, almost as if you had placed the birds in the sky yourself. Great shooting!
As for meeting the challenge, it was a bit of a stretch. I am guessing by the title your pattern was the pink pattern of the one bird?

Hmmm, this is a really nice picture but to me it seems to illustrate randomness rather than a pattern.

Like the shot, but doesn't seem too connected with the challenge theme

There are so many trying to put bird shots in a pattern contest. Nice picture but no pattern.
