What a cutie. It actually seems like he is smiling. Nice colours. If possible, try used a shallower dept of field to blur the busy back ground. I still like this shot alot. Good luck.

Subject in the picture is too far and small.

Is the same one I saw earlier? Don't think so. I don't remember the blue on his back, (but I will go back and check.) Beautiful shot. I love the addition of the plant in the background. To me it adds to the idea of the bird. Great photo. I really like it a lot. Can't find anything wrong with it. Nice focus and really nice composition.

I think if you had used a larger aperture that this picture would have benefited. The background is pulling my attention away from the bird. The bird’s eye seems soft to me.

More DOF and closer crop on the subject would have helped. Also, the fabic doesn't enhance the subject either.

Interesting shot. I might have lined up the waves the stork is on with the top of the snow maybe? The cropping makes the photo seem a little top heavy. Good luck!

This is a very interesting photo. The only thing I would change would be to align the sign just a little more straight up and down. IMO it's right in between straight and purposely angled. But I did the same type of thing in my entry this week because I was FREEZING. Nice job.

Have you tried placing the sign on the right side of the picture and then showing part of the trail? It doesn't quite work for me as a focal point at an angle and sort of randomly placed in the picture.

Nice shot but I think it would have better with the sign positioned more to the left. The sign is slightly off the vertical and the horizon is not quite horizontal, maybe rotating 1 or 2 degrees to the right and then cropping would fix this.
