Comment by Artifacts:
Interesting and refreashing twist on the challenge theme. Good use of depth of field to enhance the effect of danger. The bear looms ominous in the background and the bird seems oblivious to it.

There are a couple technical flaws that will hold the score down a little. The image is low contrast and looks washed out. The bird should appear jet black on the dark feathers and bleached white of the light ones. The biird itself and the rock it is standing on is oversharpened. There is a halo around the bird that should be cloned away and the rock has a grainy unnatural appearance.

If that's not a toy doll in the background I've severely underscored this capture.
