The email notification lured me back. :shock:

I like it but I find it hard to express why. I think it's the way it looks almost unreal. The contrast between the bird houses' almost neon blue and green and the more mundane shades of the same colors in the landscape. 8)

Thanks meow.I liked the colors as well it does seem surreal. I take it that you have cats. We have four.

good colour, good sharpness, but composition didn't work for me at all. The main house isn't at centre, nor at 1/3 of the frame. a whole lot space on the left is wasted. I'd try a tighter frame, or even vertical shot, just two houses, one in the front, the other at the back, with more grass and sky.

The intense colors and sharp focus give the picture a surreal appearance. Warp the birdhouses with a photo editor and you could have an imitation Dahli painting.

Good photo, I like it.

I like it - especially the sharpness and colours. However with a different composition it could have been much better. Perhaps having the main birdhouse on the left and the background one on the right - feel free to ignore this as its only off the top of my head :)

thank you for the comments and opinions.Isuppose there is a little to much of nothing on the left side but when I cropped it over more there was something I did'nt like about it.Perhaps the less intense tones of the field balanced out the out the picture for me.The bird houses alone seemed to vibrant and crowded.

People might find it more agreeable if you flip it over. I like it as it is though since it would be less disturbing with the houses to the left and I dig disturbing birdhouses. :shock:

To answer your question up there, yes, I used to have a cat but she went to where the mice are always fat and slow earlier this summer. Must confess I'm a dog person at heart though. :oops:

It is perfect as it is, the empty espace at the left compensates with the bird houses, and with this, the background take an important place as the bird houses... my humble opinion.

I have to agree with Gokulananda Hari . The compisition has balance with the empty space on the left. Very nice photo that instantly cought my attention. This is a wall hanger for sure.

I like it...maybe a bit of work with curves or something to make it a little more dramatic with the colors.

I find the composition good.

I like the color and the sharpness but the composition doesnt do much for me, but then again i am not much of a bird lover.
