Lend Me An Ear - Wildlife on Still Life

The colors don't work for me. Give me some blue or overcast sky as a background. The yellow overpowers the image.

I don't care for the vignetting. Detracts from the bird and it's surroundings.

Under exposed and out-of-focus.

Too small. Composition needs work.

Death is a fact of Wildlife, but I don't consider cattle to be Wild... Would have been more interesting if you had closed on one skull.

This is just an assault on my senses. Death is a fact of Wildlife, but I don't care to see it like this...

Challenge
- Relevant to the Challenge? Yes
- Is subject unique (vs. unoriginal or rehashed)? Yes. There were a few images composed with this point of view, but I think it's still unique.

Compostion
- Good or Bad? How can it be fixed? There are two minor things about the composition. The large crack up front dominates the image. Six inches forward or back might have made a difference. The road is your subject, but it is barely present. The point of view is too low, in my opinion. Bring the camera up by six inches to bring the road out, while still having the unique low view. The sky is great, but the trees are really bland.
- Good use of Depth of Field? Yes
- Good focus? I can't really tell where the focus is. It seems to be one of the trees on he right side of the road.

Lighting
- Good use of light? As someone mentioned below, your trees are overly dark.

Aesthetics/Artistic Appeal:
- What is my reaction or feelings? The subject just isn't that interesting to me. You have a light competing with dark thing going on. The Road and the Sky vs. the Trees and the Crack. The image is very busy.

Challenge
- Relevant to the Challenge? Yes
- Is subject unique (vs. unoriginal or rehashed)? Yes and No. The viewpoint is unique, but the long exposure capturing the head/taillights was common in this challenge.

Compostion
- Good or Bad? How can it be fixed? Nice leading lines and unique view. The left side of the image ruins it for me though. The one palm extends into the image too far. Give me a clear view down the road. Let me follow the string of lights.
- Good focus? The focus is a bit soft, probably due to the 10 sec exposure and camera shake.

Lighting
- Good use of light? Yes, the lighting is good, but the image is overexposed. You used a very narrow aperature , but a high ISO. I'd try using an 800 ISO instead. The street lights and the reflections on the cars are the places that you notice the blown highlights.
- Good use of shadows? Yes No

Aesthetics/Artistic Appeal:
- Colors and Contrast. The colors are a little dull, but the contrast of the lit road and the dark water is a nice touch.
- What is my reaction or feelings? Long exposures make me go, "Ho hum." Just a personal opinion.

Unfortunately, I had to compose high due to nasty street lighting pointing into the lens.
