Good technical quality, good detail, beautiful colors, good composition, eye-catching.

Generally agree with points made in nom. However it seems to be a bit overcompressed - this had led to some artifacting, which could be improved with less compression. It also seems a bit soft (lacking typical sharpness of bird FPs) - there could be a few reasons for this. The focus may be just off (for birds you usually look around the eye first, and that doesn't look quite in focus), but DOF also seems shallow despite using F/11 so the lens may not be sharp enough at this zoom perhaps, with another possibility being that the overcompression has also damaged the sharpness, which can also happen. If you could request a less compressed version may be worth a recheck here (if I'm not mistaken your father is the creator), otherwise could be suitable for VPC. Thanks for the nom. --jjron (talk) 15:41, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm almost certain noise reduction artifacts, not compression. Hopefully the creator has kept the original; this might be salvageable. Thegreenj 03:49, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
