7/10 - The highlights add a lot of depth to the image but the other tones are a little muted. It might also be better if you made the horizon parallel to the photo's edge.

I like the composition and the light, but i don't like the postproduction on his skin.
6.5/10


I prefer bw on this one but i'll post both versions:

The framing and birds expression is nice, but I dont like this very much for a couple reasons. First, the bokeh is much too extreme (and generally I love bokeh). Im assuming you were pretty close to a fence when you took this?

The bw is worse than the color because it makes the front of the bird look even more overexposed, and the contrast is kind of gross to be honest. Needs more blacks. Colored versions colors are very dull, and again his front is too bright :x

Now maybe I can get a comment on mine, since I never fail to get skipped when I post in here xD

Is that a one light setup with a reflector? Love the pose and the lighting, compliments the mood very well.
