Greetings from the Critique Club!

First Impression: A nice macro with good focus on the eyes. I like that you can still see a bit of detail on the legs. Nice lines with the branch and legs to fill out the photo, but I feel like the wings should be spread out on either side of the head... guess it was just the angle you took this at.

Looking Closer: The contrast is good here, and you definitely have a full range of black to white in the head, but the rest of the photo seems to lack... something as far as the tones. Looking at the photo you were copying, I can vaguely see the connection but it also seems a bit of a stretch. I don't know if adding the ID number of the copied photo in your title would have helped, or hurt. It certainly took a creative eye to find something within that photo to replicate!

Hope this has been helpful! Please feel free to PM me if you have any questions or comments.

nice photo. On the one hand, if this is by Roz, you've just duplicated your own picture. If not, good imitation of Roz. -7
