A very wonderful visual presented here of this crow taking something that really doesn't belong to him. Love your composition, shades, tones, and textures. Wonderful to view. Thank you for sharing.

Your work is amazing. You surely have mastered the program that allows you to create such a piece.

You have all the detail in the crows face that matches reality. The gold ring shape and color is awesome. This deserves a 6 for sure.

I am going to investigate the program you mentioned. I have worked in Photoshop for 20 years and am still learning.

Nice! your attention to detail and skillful use of digital techniques brings this captivating scene to life.

The gold ring band adds an element of intrigue and symbolism to the composition. The ring's bright, reflective surface contrasts beautifully with the crow's dark plumage, creating a visual tension that is both captivating and thought-provoking. The gold ring could symbolize a variety of themes or stories for the viewer(s) to consider.

The feathers are rendered with remarkable precision, showcasing a stunning range of textures and shades of black that highlight the bird's natural beauty. Your use of light has achieved appealing depth to the piece.

Good Luck in the Contest.

Wow. You did create amazing art with Bender this time. Look forward to seeing what else you create. Wonderful rendering of this black crow with a wedding band in its beak. You did great with your highlights and shadows and it appears as a good photograph! Great job!

This is such a lovely story-telling digital work of the crow ! You've done a great job with the framing, and the way the light, shadows, and colours interact is really pleasing to the eye. Good luck!

This is beautiful, again it is such a realistic rendition of the crow, they are similar to the raven and I believe they are attracted to shiny objects and they actually will trade things with other crows, they are very intelligent, they have great memories and are good problem solvers.
This one is standing our so beautifully from the black background , I love the way you show the light here and the details that are seen in feathers, face and beak, I love the shiny gold ring!
This is a gorgeous entry for this contest! Very best wishes to you and again this is worthy of a six, I wish they would allow each of us 10 instead of six!
