| Just wanted to say that I concur with the other commenters - the clarity brings this little guy right out of the screen. Good work. |

| Fantastic shot. You placed high, but I think you should have placed even higher than 10th. The clarity (in motion?) here is extraordinary. |

| This is so sharp and clear that it looks like it's jumping out of the screen at me! |

| Very nice. Great, simple background. The lighting is just a bit harsh - with some areas blown. But overall a pretty capture. BOL |

| Out of all the Falcon shots in this challenge IMO this one is by far the best. There is absolutly no feeling in those eyes. Well exposed, excellent DOP\selective focus, loads of detail, contrasts perfectly against the background and fills the whole frame. Great job, deserves to score high. |

| Great close up and wonderful detail. I think what seems weirdest for me though is the way his eyes seem almost to be missing in their blackness. A catchlight would help this image very much indeed. 7 |

| Hard lighting works well here, and brings out the feathered detail on head.. I like the way you used shallow dof concentrated on the head and wing. |
