Annoying Photographer - Critique Thread

A little bigger (white spot removed) and ready for critique

Nice composition - fine background for the bird. Only the white parts have a bit too much light in it.

Agree with Moinx2 on the light head, just a tad too light. The reflection in the water looks great. The grass and lowest part of the bird's body is a bit too dark. I think the bird would look even better if he/she were just to the right of the tree, but sometimes they just don't do what you want them to do so ya just gotta click the shot or they fly fly away - hope that helps - Marko

I’ve just started to get interested in this type of photography so I’m not comfortable critiquing. Personally I also feel that the head is a bit too white. It really jumps out at me more so than anything else in the photo. Although, I really kind of like it the way it is. It just gives the impression that the bird (seagull?) was lit by the daylight more so around the neck and head, but the lighting in the photo tells an entirely different scenario. So I suppose a little darker on the neck and head would look a bit more natural. I feel that I’d like it a bit more if the image overall was a tad brighter.

I really love the shot though I feel that it would be nice in a frame on the wall. The composition works for me.
