I am not sure I like the birds legs being cropped out of the frame tah may hurt the score some but I really do like the texture and clarity of the birds feathers. thanks for sharing the image with us and good luck in the challenge!

A bit too dark on my monitor. Just my 2cents.

Nice shot overall. Great details in the tail feathers area. The eye and head isn't as sharp as the forementioned area. Getting the eye crisp is essential to a strong wildlife photo. The whites also feel a little understated and closer to grey tones (although that could be this cruddy work monitor). All JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.

The curve really leads the eye into the photo nicely and the sky is gorgeous. Something about the dark area feels a little akward though.

This is my avourite of the water reflections. The composition is lovely, the exposure good (always tricky with white feathers), and the wavy reflection really interesting. Bumped from 8 to 9.
