Greetings from the Critique Club!

Hits: This is a wonderfully thought out and executed photo. The natural framing you chose adds great impact to an already beautiful sunset. The bird in the scene, while a little small here, adds to the natural feeling and balance. The exposure looks well done. And the border works well here to frame the photo.

Misses: Not much to criticise here, but one small issue I "THINK" I see, though it's hard to tell at this size, is that the edge of the sillouetted opening looks just a tad softer than you would want the edge to be. That would stand out more in a larger print, but it's also something that could be handled by post processing, if it's even the case at all.

Ideas. Not much I would change here. The only suggestion I would have would be to see if the great asethetics can be improved even more by increase the relative area of the sunset by cropping the top and bottom a little tighter (making it more panoramic).

Great picture overall!

I think the cage bars add some emotion to this photo...the monkey looks sad. A different perspective!

Absolutely fits the challenge. The expression tells us what this creature's point of view is.
