The first part of this to catch my eye is the powerful contrast between the bird's gorgeous blue plumage and his intense red eye. The detail on the feathers is striking - like a million threads that cris-cross in every direction possible! Then there are the white specks throughout the pigeon's crown - its a fine detail that makes this all the more interesting.

The perspective on this, and the way the face is part of the blurred out background is what sets this apart from thousands of other bird photographs. Both of these traits make this highly interesting.

The tanish-greenish background compliments and highlights the eye.

I can't find anything wrong with this - at all. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)"/>
