Your chickens are sharp and show well both texture and color. I like the motherly love shown in your story. Because your animal colors are so good, I would suggest masking the scenery and lowering the exposure to focus attention on the birds. |

Thank you. I am not finished with it now that I have gotten good comments/suggestions from the group. |

I've not used the squish down concept; however I do use the transform tool. When I pulled down the sides came down with the top. How does one prevent this and keep it only coming down from the top?
The trees are my favorite part of the image so while I might crop a small amount, for me, 1/2 is too much.

I've not seen this type cormorant. The ones I've seen are black. I like how you have pulled the color from the bird. It is sharp and glossy. I agree with your background busy concept with the exception of the branch on the left and the brown leaf behind the branch in the bird's mouth. |

I like the calm, almost painterly, quality of the image. The grasses and flowers lead me around the image. The sky is mysterious. Because your sky has white in it, my eye goes there. I would suggest in the original, using Camera Raw to raise both contrast and saturation very small amounts to bring out your beautiful foreground. You might use Dehaze to see if you like the effects. Landscapes often have a larger aperture such as f/16 with a focus set 1/3 into the scene. That is a general rule; however I think this is a good shot of an interesting view.

Your detail is sharp and the post process treatment you chose pulls colors well. At first this was confusing to me. Your title gave me the information I needed. While this is absolutely the choice of the photographer, I think a bit more of face would give me information I need. However, it would take away from the main focus. I am torn between wanting more information and appreciating the focus on the bird and ear. |

I find the strength of your image in all the various leading lines. My eyes wander from the foreground to the background, then from left to right. The rolling hills keep me lingering in the photo. While I like your treatment of the sky, I think a lighter sky would pull more attention to the canola. |

Your bird is outstanding, and I mean that literally. It stands out so beautifully from your background. With an f/8, this was not due to small aperture. How far from the plant was the background shrubbery? You have a lovely image with good detail. I agree that the eye could be brightened but only a small amount. |
