Wow, great photograph.

I'm really not sure, but it is distracting, I'd would go back and look at the original file, process it again and re-upload the photo.

Nice shot , and an unusual bird, author what is the line across the photo?

ummmmm... corn snake, about four feet long

snake scales?

Well... looks like they're all Goldfinches... but you do still have one male and two females (or juveniles)

nice image == maybe apply a correction for chromatic aberration

Congratulations janoogee...

Let's hear it for the Navy! Out of the box, original

You are welcome, love this photo.

Lovely photo, but that is a bucket not a basket.

Congratulations, stunning photo, takes a lot of patience and a steady hand.

Leaning to the left a little, but very crisp and clear.

nice

niiiiiice

I would also look very nice as a desktop LOVE the image!

Very nice

Nice catch (well... maybe not him, but you)

wow... Hope no one was in it

And it looks new (very clean.) Have you noticed the red car in the background?

McDonald's? Nice collection of red.

If only the good Lord could help him with his spelling problem... Nice find, author

Really nice photograph with excellent composition, focus and exposure.

Very nice, well composed and focused, the lighting is excellent, this would look really nice as part of a calendar.

Really nice photograph, I really like the composition and focus.

beautiful ........

nice photo

Congratulations

What a wonderful photograph.

beautiful

Great well-deserved second-place finish, this is a very nice photograph.

Amazing clarity, great picture

excellent find......

yes... now it is better than before

Great idea and nice point of view.

Nice photograph.

nice shot...... but i think you have to adjust some color and contrast

Don'cha just hate those little drills like this one that won't even go through drywall?

Very nice shot.

In my humble opinion this does fit the rules completely. Good luck.

Now this is a fantastic photograph of a flying bird from the Birdseye View I like how you managed to stop the bird inflight, and that it is extremely well focused. The composition and exposure are great.

Moderators? Perish the thought! It's just that the picture gives the impression that the bird or birds is/are almost level with your eyes. Good luck

An impressive picture no doubt, but I have to agree with kyri that it doesn't follow the theme. IMHO It hardly looks as if things are ''seen'' from way above

awesome!!

I'm fine with this one, as the author said, 2 birds flying together.

This is a wonderful photo of a bird, but it doesn't really follow the theme

WOW shot GL

Good one..

Wonderful shot, the detail in the high res is terrific, you can see the whiskers on his face.... he really needs a shave

Great looking photograph with spot on focus and great composition.
