Great rich colours and the dof is perfect. Really like the composition and the clarity of the flamingo's neck and head, very nicely done.

Really like the fading around the edges and the muted colours, they make the deer really stand out. The dof is amazing, it took me a minute to see the other deer but it helps to make this an outstanding entry. Good luck with this I am sure you will do very well!

Duck on Abstract Pond

This is one of the nicest pictures of a duck I have seen, I love the water and reflections that surround the duck. Beautiful contrast and dof. The way you have centred the duck is perfect for this shot as the colours compliment each other so well to make him pop right out of the shot. Another work of art in this challenge, good luck!

Love the perspective that you have taken this from, the pelicans stand out perfectly against the beautiful blue sky, very nicely captured.

What an adorable creature and you have captured it so well, the textures are so evident due to the clarity of the shot, well cropped and very nice colours, good luck in the challenge but with a shot like this you don't really need luck!

Beautiful lines and wonderful subtle whites. Love the water drops on his feathers, its soft and crisp at the same time. The title is perfect as the entire flow of the picture is a graceful work of art!

I love the vibrant blue sky and the way it makes the vulture just pop, the angle makes this shot very dramatic. Great image, good luck!
