I would have love to see this without (what appears to be) the desaturation. Nice composition regardless.

have never really been that big of a fan of fireworks shots, but i do like the two stages you captured, the falling of the fire, and the explosion

I thought this was a funny idea and great moment. But like some others said, I wish the focus wasn't on the ocean. Really tho, perfect title.

Hi Kelli,

I was actually one of the higher voters on this shot. I like the spot of colour in the frame. I wasn't keen on the border though. I prefer simple borders if any - nothing fancy. One area that this image falls down is composition lines. Most of the frame is filled with the detail of the leaves. The stick is a line, but not really in the right place to make the composition. Cropping in a little closer might help that - take a little of the top and right, and little more off the bottom - but not too much, because the image has a nice open feel that would be a shame to lose. A slight vignette might also help focus the image in just a little.

Sweet! I like the look on his face, he's enjoying the fun!

Not too fond about the processing (something happened to his eyes?) and I think a tighter crop might be better.

one of the best bird nature shots of the challenge, if not the best. I gave it a 7.

Whenever I see branches like this, and reds and greens, I always think Christmas - don't know why! That's a gorgeous red cardinal! I've been trying to catch one for a while. Nice job!
