I love the way that the hawk blends in his/her environment. Nice eye!

Nice sharpness on the eye and interesting framing with the branch. Sky is a little flat but I doubt the bird was willing to hang around til some nice cloud formations drifted by. Bird blends a little into the tree, especially on the left. Good for reality, not so dramatic for a picture. Maybe some selective dodging/burning might make him stand out more.

I don't think most people understand how hard this shot is. 6

I'm a fan of "toning", but am not sure I really care for it in this instance. I like the foggy scene and the trees, and I like the peaceful feeling of the image.

With nothing happening in the sky, I may have tried to bump up the horizon and focus on the field. Good Luck. 5.

Nice use of high key effect! I only wish the colors would have been a little bit more saturated.
