Is the image brilliance? Maybe. But, maybe not. It's all in the eye of the beholder, I fear. Just play the game here... It's all for an imaginary piece of paper. Enjoy!

Don't ever forget my user name ;)

"The title of your image MUST be "Falling Apart"." - your title is "Peer Pressure". Just thought I'd point that out. :P :P :P

LOL, Well, sorry, it me from the CC again!

This is another great shot from this series Janine. What I love about this shot is not just the action of the bird that you captured. It's the shape of the feathers amongst the foliage that makes the bird look like a flower, just briiliant!

I know the spirit of the Critique Club is to offer some suggestions on things that could be improved in the image but honestly it's hard to find anything. The only thing that made me wonder is if the blues got pumped up to much in the b/g as it seems to be bleeding onto some of the feathers. But hey, 18th in the free study is nice!

Greetings from the Critique Club :)

Welcome to DPC! I really like the composition and the cropping on this. These types of street shots are always appealing to me, you did a really nice job seeing the photo opportunity here and capturing a good moment with the subject walking into the frame.

Don't be too discouraged over this score, you have found out two important things about DPC with this image. 1: DPC voters have a much more critical eye than voters on most other sites. This is a good thing though, if you are open to criticism your photography will improve by leaps and bounds here. 2: DPC voters are VERY tough on selective desaturation. To me, selective desat is like frosting on a cake, a little is great but too much can make you a little sick :)
If you're early into learning photography this is something I think most of us go thru, experimenting with different techniques in photoshop. All in all i think there are definitely more positive things than negative. Keep shooting and entering!
