Nice and sharp with good color and detail. I don't think this would work in nature as the bird is sitting on a man made railing.   Posted: 01/18/2026 13:15:04

How does one define "nature" then? The bird is not in a cage or aviary.   Posted: 01/18/2026 14:28:24

no hand of man. no roads or manmade items.   Posted: 01/18/2026 15:46:25

I respectfully disagree.   Posted: 01/18/2026 16:29:50
I admire the image sharpness (especially the eye) given that it was shot at 1/10 sec at 215mm. nice bokeh as well.
in terms of man-made items, I have to agree with Howard's comments. These are PSA rules. I had an image rejected in a PSA exhibition because it showed a small tire track in the corner of the image!   Posted: 01/18/2026 21:38:48
