I loved this photo in the challenge. The control of DOF in this shot was superb.The way that your wings fade in and out into the background makes for some extreme depth in this photo and really give a great 3d effect.
The feathers on the body are very sharp yet seem smooth at the same time. I also loved the crispness of the background. I also loved the capture of the catch light in the eye. and the placement of the eye on the left vertical 3rd. was beautiful.
It was one of my 10's picked for this challenge and one I had picked to ribbon. Sorry to hear about the DQ. Especially on such a beautiful photo. |
