Hi Tammster! You needed a small sword or dagger for him to check out while you were shooting this, to connect it to the challenge a little better.
Nice looking bird, and that's a good pose. The wrinkles in his face make it look like this was processed a little "hard", but they do look that way from some angles ,esp with flash.
My Jules says "Howdy, bird!"

| Beautiful bird, but this, like the other parrot, need some context to be "piraty". |

| Good job capturing the fine details in the feathers and the personality of the bird in this shot. |

| Great and wonderful details and fabulous color on this pet portrait of this parrot. It is far above average in the technicals - color, details, and clarity. However, it needed that extra boost IN THE picture itself to have a strong connection to the pirate challenge. The connection you make to pirates is in the title and I am one who fully believes that a stronger composition would be "show, don't tell". One possibility would be showing the bird on a persons shoulder with a treat being held out to the bird with a hook 'hand; would have shown a stronger connection to pirates. The title should complement not carry the shot. As I stated earlier, this is a great animal portrait and would score well in a challenge so themed. Unfortunately, I cannot give this full marks for it fails to show a strong connection to the theme...but I will still rate it slighty above average. |

| Nice photo and I see that the title draws it into the category of Pirates, but I don't think this photo necessarily fits the subject. |
