Very nice shot; the subject is perfectly sharp and the BG works very well.

Congrats

Judy, I like the eye contact and light on the face and bill. Composition looks good. Perhaps a little bright on the shoulder. I hope you'll comment on the images of others when you feel comfortable in doing so. I've found that I gain at least as much from commenting as I do in reading the critiques on my own images.

Everything looks good here Judy, very sharp. As Ron said, feel free to join in on the critiquing, say what you think.

Judy,

I like the pose of your American White Pelican, the colors and the water in the background. I would like to see this posted at the 720 pixel size to evaluate the details, they look good that this size though.

I'm in agreement with Ron D, you will learn as much from commenting on other people's images as you do from the ones you get.
