CyMaNComment by ambaker: Critique Club Review:
Color, Saturation, and Hue are all very well done. This is about as realistic as it gets. Brightness and Contrast are very good as well. You did a good job lighting this scene.
Focus is good, but depth a field feels a bit short. While the background is well isolated, at the same time, it feels like softness is creeping into the subject area. The image feels a bit over processed, looking at the area above the babies in the middle of the nest. The background is so immediately soft, and the outline of the babies so sharp.
In the foreground the nest starts to go soft just a tiny bit too soon for my eye. My eye knows that the nest has a rough exterior, but sees softness in the area next to where it attaches at the wall.
I think I might have liked a tighter picture, or less zoom. The detail nest competes with the birds for the eye here. I want to look at the birds, but my eye keeps travelling to the nest.
Overall an enjoyable picture. I believe that you were successful in telling your story. Welcome to the top 25.
