This is one interesting image Desmond

Departs from the norm in so many ways but actually works. I think with less dramatic lighting it would work even better. Overall seems a little dark. The image does make you stop, hold your attention and make you think !!!!

Hi Desmond,
It is an interesting image indeed... I would like to see the bird bigger in the frame...I would clone portions of the perch out. Its too over powering for the little guy...:cool:

Hi Desmond,
I do love it when people break the rules...:cool::D
I actually like the proportions as presented - the only thing that I might change would be to somewhat lighten the bird. Like this a lot!
Regards,
Nicki
