    Personally I like it, the effect is cool! Might try lightening the eye a bit and I think I would be tempted to crop some from the right. The tail in fog doesn't seem to add much and my eye keeps going there looking for it. I really love the swallows face!

    Hi Rosl, lovely bird! I like the angle you got, although I wish I could see a little more of the marking on the birds breast. Agree with Nonda on cropping of some of the right. I think it would work really well if you would place the birds eye on the "rule of thirds" hotspot in the UR corner.

    Lovely image, like Nonda's suggestion about lightening. And you could play around with the cropping. There is an action for rule of thirds which you can download for PS. Fabs posted it. It is very easy to use.

    Well done Rosl and a good idea. I agree with the cropping suggestions, it seems to bring out the swallow even more.
