SNOT!

Not the most wonderful of liquids but an amazing concept on the challenge. Wonderfully in focus from the eyes to the teeth with the snot inbetween, nicely done.

Good composition and exposure. A little more DOF would help with impact. Enough DOF to include the entire beak and eye I think would be enough.

Great picture with very narrow depth of field, but I think it's stretching it a bit to call this a Home Swee Home picture. Perhaps if you had shown the nest he was staying in, it would be more effective.

i think this is a stretch on the challenge, and probably your score will reflect that reality. But the picture itself is really good, though I would have cropped a bit off the top of the shot and did somethnig different with the borders, they are uneven. Did you use even or odd numbers of pixels to create it? If you use even numbers, you always get even borders. I like the focus on the eye, and the slight out of focus of the beak, it softens the image.
