A simple image that is surprisingly appealing.

Lovely positiioning. The image lacks the right lighting to really bring the flower out and off the screen.

Interesting 'story'. The image is lacking crispness for me.

WOW - that IS impressive. I cannot imagine taking such an image - you have both great equipment and patience.

Beautiful location. the image is very flat. I'd have played with post processing, perhaps selective colours to bring out details, dodged the tree-top on the right and used High Pass sharpening (or other) to created more depth.

I feel you've used the excessive framing to try and detract from the clarity of the bird.

Clearly you've done very well to get this image, but it lacks in post processing to 'bring it off' the page. The frames really are 'too much' and have dwarfed your subject.

Contrast, maybe Shadow/Highlights and then a REALLY GOOD go at High Pass sharpening.
I would have concentrated on the bird, worked levels, burned the eye and around the body (thinly) to make it POP.

Interesting perspective, beautiful colours and VERY crisp and clear.

I don't think you needed the frame.

The B&W is great. The image lack the WOW factor. The models hands have the most light and they look strained and uncomfortable.

The orange-ness is too much for me.

Pretty location. The position of the sun means this image is tough to make work well.

In addition a tripod or some firm rest for your camera was needed for clarity. Too much sky, even though pretty blue, just lacks interest for no clouds or contrast.

Compositionally there is no real point of focus to draw out eyes too.
