Eyes need to be sharp. Tricky but keep practising.You got the catchlight in the eye which is good. Very nice effort 6

Nice details on the wings. Love the title! (no vote, just making a few comments)

I enjoy the background as well as the clarity of line on the feathers. However it appears he is a bit out of focus or that it drops off rather quickly. I would have hoped for a sharper more clear view of the whole bird and not just the tips of the wings.

A tableau of winter Christmas fun just outside the window, and a silent figure inside sharing it - but not. We see an older person but from the back so we really cannot tell the expression - is it amusement? longing? the tension of waiting? This candid portrait is superb in that it gives no definitive answers except for what each watcher of the photograph interprets and brings into it. I like the view - and the backwards wreath and perfect house across the street add to this as do the muted plaid curtains which echo the person's lighting. Such stories to be told!

Very nice shot.
Could be a Christmas card cover.
Exposure is perfect.

Interesting shot, with the two looking in almost the same direction yet facing opposite ways. The wings spread is great. And the title adds a nice chuckle.

Nice - captures the cold and gray of the day very well, but keeps the detail without blowing out. Has a forlorn feel to it.
