Looks out of focus, or just very soft.

not in good focus, and watch the strong light. 6

cool shot! It's unfortunate that the bird isn't in focus though.

nice use of the rule of thirds. but given the quality of these open challenges submitting a bird shot (nothing against birds mind you) that isn't tack sharp will result in a score that could be a blow to your ego.

The focus seems a bit off.

Nice catch. Too bad the focus on the sparrow wasn't sharper. The red seems to be a little too intense. On my monitor, the bird appears to have more red than brown in the head, wings, and tail. The bokeh is very nice.

This is too blurry to me.

Beautiful colors, but it needs to be sharper. 8(
12/03/2006 05:55:18 AM
The picture is out-of-focus
12/03/2006 04:30:00 AM
too blurry

Nice photo, but a bit blurry. Unsharp mask or high pass overlay would have cleaned it up enough.

A photo with a single centered subjects and deliberately out of focus background really has to have the subject in focus to work

The sparrow seems a bit blurry. I would have rated it higher if it were sharpter.
12/01/2006 07:05:35 PM
I'm afraid this is just too out of focus. Better luck next time.
12/01/2006 02:42:08 PM
Good color and nice shot, but it is way out of focus. I too have some that ahhh if only it was sharper.

Great capture but a bit too blurry, IMHO

Unfortunately this isn't very sharp - could have been a very nice picture if it was.

The sharpness and feather detail has gone. Possibly the bird moved slightly during the exposure
