The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.
This fledgling Pied Cormorant is all beak and happiness, making a joyful statement on its rocky podium with the sea softly clapping in the distance.
Any feedback welcome

Nicely done Saundie. Intriguing pose you captured with the open beak and shut eye. Well composed. Interesting rocky perch that is repeated in the BG with crashing waves in the very back. Exposure and sharpness on the bird look good to me. Well done.
Very nice – interesting bird and pose, with the elements of rock and roiling water working together nicely in the soft light. Interesting DOF – the bird is very sharp and the distant BG nicely softened.
Thanks Allen! 
Thanks Diane!
