No comments at all?

you can copy and past the IMG link instead of the url. That might get some more response. That way the pic will show up in the post

Pretty shots. I'm a total noob, so... but I think a little tighter shot would have been nice for most of them. Try cropping them a bit. Also, the bird butt one is funny But cardinals are always stunning against a snowy background.

I like the first picture the best. The way the male cardinal stands out against the background is what I like most about it. The others are nice also, the female cardinal seems to be to dark to me. Good pics though.

I like the first pic too, I wish that distracting leaf about his head wasn't there though.

Nice shots, I've been trying to get some bird shots and failing miserable

First one is also my favorite and thanks you have given me the great idea of putting in a bird feder. It would be nice having subjects flying right into the back yard!

I am sure the orginals arent like this but why are these uploads so pixelated?

 

[Chriss]

Hmm Im not sure :/
Anyway: Heres the last few. Promise . Sorry for putting up all these bird pics haha.

Bump... Any comments/criticism on the last set?

The first one is pretty nice.
While you could easily fall into the selective color cliche, instead, just desaturate the 2 competing leaves. Don't remove all their color just subdue them.

 

[Chriss]

Alright so I took your advice but decided to do both no leaves and subdued leaves.

Heres the subdued leaves-

And no leaves-

 

[Bitter Jeweler]

Nice job with no leaves!

 

[Chriss]

Thanks for the advice! I wouldnt have thought to do that otherwise
