    Re: Challenge 156 Birds

    No quick trip to Australia for me to get this pic! Much more local than that.

                    Re: Challenge 156 Birds

                    Firstly thanks to all challenge entrants...

                    This challenge has been difficult to judge....not only as I'm no expert in this genre but that there are several different approaches....including capturing action, illustrative classic compositions and alternative approaches ….all of which are hard to rate against each other. There are some really high quality images here.
                    I have selected a top four shots, though all entries have something to offer

                    ....so here are the results of my deliberations in reverse order:-

                    Fourth - Old Cotswald Legbar - by AlexR...an alternative approach is always interesting. A very well executed image of an interesting subject.

                    Third - Eurasion Jay - by arquebus...a beautiful image with great colour and depicted within a natural environment

                    Second - Over the rainbow - by Bikeman - a super creative image with extraordinary background content

                    First - Feed me feed me - by leeperry - this shot is immediately appealing and has enduring interest. Great DoF, colour, composition and it tells a story conveying urgency and vulnerability.

                    Its over to you Gary to set the next challenge
                    Congratulations and thanks for presenting a fantastic winning image!

                            Be nice if you actually re posted the images that won rather than just say who they are . Or maybe put them in a forum challenge leader board thread ?

                              I cant resist saying that it would be nice if you contributed Lepus....I refer to your PM to me in which you described at length how you probably wouldn't take part.
                              I made the effort to run this challenge....let me tell you I am very busy too.

                                Some cracking images (pun alert!) so congratulations to lee on a top image and the three runners up. Not easy for Brian to judge so big thumbs up to him.
