In the Mountain's shadow

Comment:
congratulations on the blue .. totally fitting considering your colour scheme in this photo . !! ..
i sorta agree with Mary Ann about the crop .. altho i didnt even realize we could crop in this minimal edit challenge until i read the extra rules .. which was lucky for me .. who wants a stray piece of barbed wire ruining the look of an otherwise pristine photo .. lol .. joke .. it wasnt pristine .. ;)
anyway .. this is a great pic .. and congrats again .. :)

Rooster’s Balance Beam
by noraneko

Comment:
i loved your highest scoring rooster shot Catherine ... but i think i like this one better ..
those iridescent tail feathers really grab me .. and i like how i can see the entire rooster .. and how he's standing on the fence post .. it puts the rooster into an environment for me .. which i really like too ..
the light .. the colours .. the background .. everything is perfect ..
i never knew roosters were so beautiful .. makes me want to get one just for photos .. lol .. ;)
