I love the formal portrait nature of this blue jay. He looks as if he posed for you but I'm sure that it is a bit of your magic that did that. The details are phenomenal...never seen one up this close myself. I like the gradated background from pale blue to mauve. This brings out the colors that we never knew were in this bird. Beautiful.

Definitely seeing blue and very sharply focused. Shows off the beautiful pattern of his feathers. Like the little eye sparkle caught. Nice composition. Good impact. The best of luck in the contest. Thanks for sharing.

Amazing! This is a beautiful image. The bird is clear, sharp and focused. The background doesn't distract. It's very nice.

Excellant close-up Willie. The detail is fantastic and spot on with the eyeball. Your adjustments worked well with the photo.

Nice! Im not generally drawn to bird pictures but something about this one grabbed my attention. I like the overall analogous color scheme. I also like the reflection in the eye. Great job
