Here's mine. I still like it but do understand the reason why it got a low score. My emotional feelings toward the image got in the way of better judgment. Without the face showing...
It was an emotional moment when that little bird was rubbing it's head up against that branch. There was a feeling of connection between the two that was quite touching.

I'm off to work in a few so will be back later today to comment on some of the images.

I pulled this image at the last day or so. My Daughter told me not to change it with the one I put in. Next time I'm listening to her.

i would have rated this higher also i think this is very nice! the cardnal that is

Ps i really hate unsharp and offf comments--lol

Remember that voters are seeing a resize of your original, while your original is really sharp as your crop shows, the image we got to vote on lacks that "punch" that is so important in DPC.

I seriously thought this shot was a 6ish and it tanked BADLY!!! I have never been so wrong about an entry before. I just loved the shadows and highlights and the different lines.

I took it with my S3 as we were just showing my sis around the island after lunch and I only had my "purse camera" with me.

I do agree with the few people who suggested a crop at the bottom. I went back and forth on that decision when submitting it, and leaned slightly towards the uncropped version.

Thanks to all who participated in this - the comments are outstanding! I really appreciate the close look and honest opinions I received on mine. It's nice to know that while the appeal wasn't very universal, I at least did a decent job of presenting my shot and that the basic elements of composition were there. That tells me a lot. I hope everyone got a lot out of this exercise, both with respect to their own shot, and in the process of making comments on the photographs of others. Thanks again!

I have learned one thing that to score 6.25+ in free studies your shot has to have something extraordinary in it. At least a small WOW in it.
I scored 6.4x in this free study and at least 3 comments wrote wow.
