Bird and razor wire

Comment by tate:
This is a great ccapturing of juxtaposed subjects - and well composed. It might be considered a shoe-horn into macro though.

I think it works very well, I like the patterns of the wire, the moon is small but it gives something else to the picture. Most of the noise could be removed with noise ninja (or equiv) I like the wall framing the bottom and also the way the wire makes eyes nose and a mouth is great

I see the bit of camera shake too in this shot. It may help to think about gently and gradually increasing pressure on the shutter button, the same way you would trigger a rifle to reduce shake. I use a monopod quite often, and that makes a huge difference in sharpness.
Nice composition, and the colors and texture are pleasing to see.

I would go for the Sports setting too. A beautiful shot, very well composed, & I agree w/what's been said by others.

There is a look of posterization here that complements the textures. I don't know how to critique architectural shots, so at the risk of sounding like an idiot I'll say it seems kind of flat.

I also like the varying shades of green.

I like the image you were going after -- the contrasting light, the various greens, and the shapes and textures. The soft focus on the tree bothers me, because my eyes strain to get it clear, but I like the blur in the background.

I like the different shapes and colors of green. you really need a stable shooting support on close ups like this one.
