Another sub-5 score from me, but I wonder if anyone thought the bird was real. It's a sticker on the window; it's possibly there to discourage real birds from slamming their beaks against the glass...

The beauty of camera work, and your personal vision can result in false reality. To the viewer, the camera does not lie.

Nice work.

I thought it was a bird, it was the main attraction of the image imo..

Cannot understand why so many people thought my WINDOW was a door! It does open up with a handle, but it's a WINDOW!

Challenge entries that do well capture the essence of the concept. In a window challenge, if it's not perceived to be a window, then it will score poorly. It doesn't matter what it is or is not.

I thought it was real. What killed the shot for me was the wierd angle of the window, but I attributed that to being the best angle to capture the shot of the bird.

Now that I know the bird was a sticker on the window, why not shoot straight at the window to get nice straight vertical and horizontal lines?

I got lens distortion shooting straight on, so I thought I'd submit the one that goes the whole hog with it. (And still no avoiding the power lines...)

i thought it was real and thought it would have been better to have actually captured the bird better. lol.

i thought since the bird was the "subject" it should have been a bit more detailed. just my opinion.

I just assumed it was real. Never seen a sticker like that before. Kinda cool! Start a whole new rage for "birdshots" in DPC where you print out a bird and mount it places and shoot away LOL.
