Beautiful! Colors, tonal range, focus, and depth of field are perfect. This rooster has a great modeling career ahead of him.

Congratulations Catherine. This photo is amazing! It's as if you handpicked the colour for the background. I love how its blurred just right. The bird itself is exquisite! Radiant colours, sharp focus, magnificent tonal range. I love how the brightness is just right yet there is all those black blacks giving everything detail and structure. Well done!

Yippeeeeee! Way to go, Catherine! I'm so happy for you. As your team member, it was so very, very cool to see it before it went into voting; we got to be wowed by it for a few days longer than everyone else! :)
