I think this may have done better if you would have gotten closer to the subject. I don't think all the negative space at the top adds much to the photo. As it is, we can see the guy, and he looks interesting, but he isn't close enough to really study him (at least not at 640) ;-) At 12mm, I imagine what I am suggesting would put really close to him, though. I can understand why you may not have been able to get that close. It would, however, increase the 'ground up' perspective as well as bring him closer.

This looks red on my monitor, so it doesn't meet the challenge.

I think I need a rest from challenges. I'm going backwards. Really expected better of this one. Thanks Cindy, Kelly and Michele for the comments.

Interesting picture. Neat angle shot. Background is a bit busy but like how relaxed the subject is

I like this... the bird really does seem to have that expression... I would like to see just a slightly tighter crop to bring more attention to the bird and less on the water.

like the use of b&w for this scene. has a storybook feel to it.
