Hey there from the Critique Club
Camera Work/Technical: As I mentioned in my comment during the challenge, the focus seems to be off just a little. It looks like the grass is more in focus that the dead bird. Closing that aperture and using just a little fill flash would have helped this even where the camera focused.
Lighting: The lighting is pretty nice. The white down feathers at the bird's butt lost a little detail. That adds a small distraction, but the remainder of the image seems nicely lit.
Composition/Content: I like the basic composition, but it has a slight crowded feeling to it. The feather touching the bottom left corner is the sole reason for this. Opening up the crop just a slight amount would easily remedy this.
My Opinion: As is, the image score pretty close to its potential. With better focus and just a slight adjustment in the cropping, this would be well above a 5.

| Similar to another picture, I can say the same: I fail to see the art in this picture. I see the failure but just being ontopic is not enough. |

| GRUESOME!! But, then again so is life sometimes. Sharpness and detail are right on as well as color and contrast. |

| Nice conveyance of failure, but the focus seems to be off just a little. It looks like the grass is more in focus that the dead bird. Nice capture and pretty good composition. I would like to see the rest of that toe at the bottom of the frame. |
