    Default Fragile Chick

    In an attempt to convey how vast the world must seem to these very young chicks , I created this image. Not sure if it gets the point across , and would love some feedback.

    I like the small bird in the frame. The environment looks nice, might as well include it. Well done.

    I love it, Joe. I think that it totally accomplished what you intended, yet the chick is large enough in the frame for us to be able to enjoy the details. Well done.

    Joe the point is bang on. I would just like a little more separation between foreground and background, there by creating more depth. Other than that the image is really cute.

    Simplicity at its best, and what a great story. You've done a great job capturing this wee one in its vast environment and demonstrating its vulnerable existence.

    Not really a mouthful for a marauding Gull, your picture tells it all, like this a lot.

    Conveys your title perfectly. Such a cute, tiny bird facing a very big world. Very pleasing environment, chick is well-placed in the frame.

    Works well for me, too. Looks very vulnerable, as you wanted it. Perhaps a few brighter spots in the BG to tone down, but all-in-all a strong image!

    Works very nicely Joe. The chick is in just the right spot in the frame, and a good size to convey the intent. And I love the color coordination.
