I NEVER say this to people, because I remember clearly how much it annoyed me when I was into direct-from-camera shots, but a bit more post-processing would have made a big difference in the aesthetics in this shot, in my opinion. Still, quite well-composed, and a cute idea that meets the challenge. Scores highly in my book -- after all, this is a photography contest and not a photoshop contest. :)

The first thing I notice is that the picture is only 500px unstead of the allowed 640px. A picture like this needs to be as large as possible to look good. The subject is good. But the framing is not good in my opinion. There is to much going on in the foreground. Perhaps if you would have travelled across the creek and having one of the cattle in the foreground.

Good luck in future challanges.

nice toning, great contrast. you could have gained by having some more space on top if it wasn't distracting...

Nice capture of the bird, but for me the busy background is a bit distracting
