    Default Kingbird- high key

    I found this kingbird in a network of sticks and thought maybe a high key treatment would emphasize the geometry of the sticks and the bird. I also added the frame to tie the geometry of sticks together.

    Bob, I like the high key image with the different lines. I think you could crop from the right so the stick is in the corner of the frame for an alternative crop. Nice work

    Bob, great high key look. I might take a small slice off the right- but I do like it as presented.

    Bob, one of my favorite images from you...love the high-key approach, and, if it were mine, I might take a sliver off of both sides...but it is a strong composition either way. Great array of lines drawing your eye through the image, and the bird is perfectly positioned. Well done!

    I love the treatment on this. Like others, a small sliver off each side would be an alternative, but it's just fine as is for me.
