somehow, I do not see this as being a picture that is going to go down in cinematic history......

@ dem90: Constructive feedback is always nice to have but using wording such as "like a retarded vignetting" is unnecessary.
Nice shot author!

lol, love the humor and light heartiness of the photo (though it isn't fun for the bird I'm sure)

I did not realize what this was until I read the title. Judging from the title, you want people to know that this is a feather, but the crop and angle don't show enough to clarify that. Or, you could be going for an abstract kind of view, which would keep the viewer guess, I think this is a great abstract shot, I'm just not sure if that is what you were going for or not.

I love what you have captured here, but I'm not liking the composition too much. The reflection is amazing, but it throws the picture off. All that space above the bird is empty for the most part, while below the bird has a small shape. That throws the composition off balance. Also, the black strip at the top is kinda ugly because it looks like a retarded vignetting. This has real potential, the soft calm neutral colors just bring out how peacefully the bird is flying. It's a quite gorgeous scene you have captured here, you just need a few minor tough ups to really make it special.

I agree, it would be a lot nicer if you cropped it a bit more. The first thing you are supposed to notice about the photo is the hat, and at first, all I saw was dirt. Love the contrast of the texture between the hat and dirt, but you need a little more hat and a little less and this shot would be perfect.

It's a lovely photograph, but I think the light is a little harsh, might be better if you lower the contrast and convert it to black and white.

I have to agree, there is a 'stereo' effect there, but it doesn't jump out at you.

author, your hi res is not very hi res......... there is not a great deal of difference from the size of the contest image. Also, the stereo depth of this is not great, it almost looks as if you have put two copies of the same image side by side. A good stereo image is one where you feel as though you could reach and touch what you are looking at, I don't get that feeling with this image.............. and please Kyricom, no gags about that comment.......
