I like the gradual blue-ing :) |

Would love to see this shot "re-done" with better lighting to bring out the blue, a nice crisp white background, and a bit more of a dynamic composition. I love the softness, though, and wouldn't change that - it really gives the downy feathery bits at the root end a lovely feel.
Sorry that I didn't get a chance to comment during the challenge, but was just going through the shots and this caught my eye. |

Thanks everyone for your comments! This was my first submission and I learned a lot from it. This feather is from my Blue & Gold Macaw. So it is actually a blue feather to answer a couple of comments from people who didn't see blue. |

What kind of bird did that come from? Beautiful feather, I like the slow and smooth transition from white to blue. |

Good eye to notice this otherwise-overlooked subject for a blue shot. The shadow is distracting, though, and with better lighting perhaps the texture of the feather and the blue color would stand out more. |

If the feather was floating maybe softness would be ok. Or if it was closer and some details were evident it would be ok. In this picture it looks as if the softness was an error in focus. There is a difference that can be seen between soft focus and a picture that is oof. With soft focus, the picture will still show the areas of sharpest focus as sharp while the areas with less focus will have a glow. An inaccurately focused shot will not have any area of shapness. |

The definition has been lost on this, foe a macro to work you have to have the detail pin sharpe, this one just hasn't got that. |
