hmm.. interesting take on the original. I think that considering your subject, the faded-out editing was a good choice. composition is good, maybe a little more space below the wing would help a little. I'm guessing though, that this isn't doing so well with the dpc crowd - I'm wondering if maybe you couldn't have tried other angles like from the ground view, or upclose maybe on the wing or with feathers blowing in the wind, but obviously lifeless on the ground... not sure, just some thoughts

Glad you took the photo in that direction, into the light. The result is pleasing. 8.

Nice location, really like the clouds. A little too dark on the right side for my taste

This is just not a good photo, in my opinion. I'm sorry.

so ... you're going for the brown? Not so fast! THis is a clever play on the original, which actaully has the ability to meet the challenge where the original really didn't. So you get a 9 because the photo is still horrible rather than excellent but it meets the challenge and has humor and wit. 9'r

whiterook's shot is a piece of fine art compared to this crap. And I'm not offended by the dead bird.
