Great desat of the red. I like the contrast of the white trim and the white on the boat.

5 - I like the concept of this shot and feel you pretty well met the Challenge (re a photo of this into a time capsule depicts the era for future generations). Criticism; having said that, the 'authenticity' (fooling me re the year) is detracted in my opinion by the roof of the right house (but I could be wrong), did they have galvanized iron then? I like the composition though but if the angle were a little sharper, perhaps more front on (depending what was on the right) it may have made this a better photograph in my opinion. Also the introduction of a selective desaturation effect, might have worked quite dramatically here, if not a b/w or sepia, but not sure on that.

** Greetings from the Critique Club **

Good DOF and focus on the bird and his perch, but the fence is awkward. I must say, you did well in at least blurring it and playing the light off it. The color balance is right on here. I also like the framing on this.
As for keeping within the realm of the challenge - I do think this was a bit of a stretch as the subject seems to be more the bird than the wooden perch.

As nice as the photo is it looks like it has been over worked by neatimage. A well composed shot tho with some interesting lines in it. Well done and good luck in this challenge. <7>
