    Nice "used" fish. Sharp with a perfect head angle and exposure. I like the o-o-f stuff on the right but the stuff along the bottom of the frame, especially the lighter ones and the one that merges with the fish's tail (and the breast too) bug me.

    that fish must smell really bad. nice exposure and good details. I also find the bright OOF branches in the BG a bit distracting, would tone them down

    I do wish for a cleaner top of the BG. Good whites and details. The food item, although rather nasty, is representative of what these scavengers will go for.
