A nice tight portrait of the parrot. Could use some better lighting to highlight the beautiful colors. The challenge is for wild animals in a natural setting, and this is taken indoors under flourescent lighting, so a couple of points taken off for that. |

Beautiful details. The lighting and background lead me to think he probably wasn't out in his natural rain forest environment though when you found him. |

Handsome character, definitely a worthy subject, but maybe not for this challenge; doesn't give sense of natural environment; you might want to experiment with more dynamic lighting - angles, brightness, etc. |

The background doesn't look like this Macaw is in the wild. Could be wrong though. The lighting also looks artificial |

Those cracks in the beak look pretty bad :-( Bright white in the background is distracting. |

A good crisply focussed portrait, with an interseting pose, but let down slightly by the background. I would have liked to have seen a little more of the macaw's environs in order to give context to the photo. |

i think adjustment to the colour would work well here, it just looks a little on the dull side |

I am trying to ignore the fact that this is obviously indoors. Its a great capture but I just don't get the "wild" feeling here at all. Sorry :( |

I'm not sure I would call this wildlife, especially since it appears to be indoors. The lighting here is a bit dull and doesn't bring out the bird's colors to it's full potential. |

Superb focus, but a little dark which makes the red a little duller.

I like your picture - vibrant colours and excelent sharpnes. But, I dont believe this was shot "in a natural environment" as stated in the challenge description. Looks more like it was shot in a house or maybe a zoo. I don't want to be to harsh, but I'll deduct 1 point and give you a 5... |

Lighting of the red feathers is a bit dull. I would have lightened reds using Hue / Sat. |
