Great contest!

This is a lovely image. The colour of the sunset is beautiful. The yellow and black work really well together. For me I would have tried the image square as there's a little too much on the sides. This said, technically this is a pin sharp, well composed and coloured image. Well done.

This is a very well observed image which you've captured in a beautiful way. The way the bird blends into the white background and sign, for me is wonderful. Putting a border on the image for me has stopped the image getting lost having the white background. Technically the image is perfect in every way. The sharpness is exceptional. A very worthy winning stunning image. Congratulations.

This image caught my eye and appealed to me as I haven't seen a Snipe sat on a sign before. I've usually spotted them on the water's edge. Despite the bold colour of the sign the Snipe stands out really well. I feel the beautiful blue background aids this. Technically the image is pin sharp and has wonderful colours and tones. Well done.

This is a comical image. I love how this woodpecker is investigating this signpost. I hope it didn't try and peck at it thinking it was a new home! The image is well framed, pin sharp and has great colours, tones and contrast. A lovely natural image. Well done.

This image makes you wonder if this bird is dancing or holding on in the wind! I think it's drying its wings out but it does look like a great dance position. The bird is pin sharp and positioned well in the frame. Well done for a beautiful image.

This image made me laugh so much. It looks like this bird is on guard making sure the sign's rule is adhered to. The image is pin sharp and well composed too. I like how the bird has brown and natural colours on it that match the sign. A great image. Well done.

Crikey, with a bird like this sat on this sign I'd be sure to follow this sign's instructions. The bird is pin sharp and has beautiful colours and tones. I like how the bird appears to be reading the sign. I really like how the background is not distracting you from the bird and sign. A lovely image. Well done.

Kissing frog Gull, LOL. This is such an amusing image. To have seen and caught the exact moment an inquisitive Gull kisses a sign and of a frog, is cracking and perfect. The image is technically perfect in every way. The composition works really well being in the centre as it ensures you look straight at the action.

This is a lovely natural image. The bird is well positioned on the sign which is composed well too. Technically the image is spot in. You've left enough space around the sign especially in the direction it's pointing in. A wonderful, peaceful image. Well done.
