A long DOF gave me this view of my son feeding the ducks in the Lake District.

Yes, obviously it's not a perfect, pretty picture and will probably score low as a result, but I like it. ;)

Cute. Right place at the right time. The red sets an appropriate mood.

This is surreal and very cool. I hope this is legal. I'm not going to report you but I can almost guarantee that someone will. 8

The border seems a little too large. I do like the magenta tones you have added.

Very cool shot! Why the icky heavy border, though? Anyway, I love this, even the red tinge--adds the right emotional tenor.

Ok, this is a comic photo for me, although I'm not sure if you intended that. Pretty good job with the photo, though.

Love the photo, not sure I am a huge fan of the red tones, maybe a little too red. 8

too much border for a nice image. the big bird on the right looks a bit unreal. nice composition

I gave this shot a 5. I know that you probably were excited to capture the two birds attacking the child, but overall the sepia tone and overall technical quality of the shot are somewhat low. There are signs of over sharpening after your resize and the sepia treatment has introduced noise in the sky. If this were for the member's challenge, I'd suggest cloning out the ducks in the water and perhaps double check your brightness and contrast on the shot. I realize you may be going for a Hitchcock effect on this, but in my opinion the treatment appears to be trying to mask flaws instead of enhance an image with intent.

Reminds me of "The Birds".

Is this real? If so, why don't the ducks seem disturbed by the action nearby? Neat photo otherwise...
