Shutters

Hi Bob,
First let me say you have a nice image here. I really like your use of dof here it is excellent both front & back. I like the way the image is composed, the offset & sideway shutters really make the image work. I like the color balance they all work well together.
The focus seems nice and sharp with plenty of detail & texture. The only distraction I see and it is minor is the first white shutter though out of focus it kept catching my eye. Overall this is a really nice image it is simple yet effective, and it has interest.

good find on these pretty birds - the image seems to lack an overall sharpness requisite to really take this image to the next level

Back to comment: Such a wonderful shot of the bird. Not sure if it was your intention to have it out of focus this way. It's not completely unappealing, however, would have been far better if it was imo.

Pretty good idea but the figure is just a wee bit too dark to make out clearly on one of my monitors - this could be hurting your vote a bit.

I'd put some more light on the figure.

funny shot - my kids have those lightsabers too - the fuzzy edges to the silhouette take it down a bit
