I like the DOF in this, and the detail in the feathers is great. Congratulations on the HM in one very tough challenge!

Rita, CONGRATULATIONS on your first honorable mention with this amazing photo. It was one of only 5 that I gave 10's to and the others are ribbons & 4th place! It is a shame that such an amazing photo and a score that most assuredly would had won blue in any other challenge doesn't get a ribbon as its reward -- but Honorable Mention and a 7.5 score. Wow! Everyone will be checking out that photo on your profile for a long long time :)
