It's an interesting idea. The title fits the image.

The vignette is a little strong for my tastes, but nonetheless a fine entry.

firebird? I don't understand the title... possibly a nickname I don't know. Zany processing

Different. A bit surreal. This photo really keeps my attention.

The initial impact is stunning. Upon reflection, the dark edges are bit extreme for me. Still a beautiful image though.

Beautiful bird. I'm not sure all the vignetting and red adds anything to the image. I just sit here looking at everything but the bird.

Very interesting effect - can't quite decide if I like it - but very interesting . .

IMO the editing is a little harsh, I think there's just a little too much contrast between the white bird & the background. You did a nice job of not blowing out the highlights though. Again, just my 2 cents.

Really pretty but I'm afraid this type of editing might not do well on DPC. Maybe I'm wrong. :~) I like it - very artful. 7

Beautiful shot and well processed

My first impression was - nicely done. However the more I look at it, the further away from "wildlife" my mind goes. It stands strong as a symbol, yet not sure as a topic contender.

I like the processing in this...perhaps the other voters might not
