I like how most of basics in photography have been addressed with this phote; filled frame, no distractions with background, overall composition. Your image is crisp and the red is very striking. Nicely done!

Good focus although depth of field loses something on bird's lower half. Love, though, the out of focus, background here. That is a magnificent bird!

I really like the bright red, and yellow beak against the dull background ... very nice composition...really makes him stand out!

Nice colour saturation - I would have cropped the top closer to his head to tighten it up.

Reds are a little oversaturated. Amazingly, its too red. Good clear shot besides that though. And one of the better ones of this challenge to boot

I like this because it's a great photograph (composition, colors, mood) that fits the challenge well. This is the kind of photograph that could be used to represent a Rooster Year.

Seems to be too much headroom, could of cropped it down a bit farther. Otherwise very nicely done
