    Very artistic frame, Sharon. I like the bird's perch and the color of the background that tie it all together.

    Beautiful design and concept. Soft colors and I love the placement of the perch. The bird looks a tiny bit crunchy to me....

    I agree about crunchy! I'm just trying out Topaz software...will have to be a little more delicate with my adjustments! Thank you for your honesty!

    Lovely image design, the perch, BG and comp are great...I have to say the textures on the bird look a little coarse. Very nice Sharon!

    Nice colorful shot of this guy. I really like the perch and the pose he gave you. Nice comp you chose too. Back off the sharpening just a little, and then it's ready for print! Well done
