Great picture! If you straighten it a little, it would be even better.

Id give it a solid four. It’s super sharp on the eye, but the bird’s angle makes the bill be not as sharp(depth of field). I also wish there was more room on the bottom of the frame. It’s also a little too close-up for me.

Sharpie has given me decent looks the past two days.

I gave it a 4.  The tip of the bill is a little out of focus.

No great photos today.  I'll go with one of our "impure" Mottled Ducks:

Any clue why some people seem to be rating all of your photos as 4/5s?

Is it just me or does that bill look really yellow?
