My poor eagle..

My poor eagle.. · 05:08 PM

was shot down by the Pentax Photo Gallery judges.

Too many talons, uh, thumbs down, I guess.

I know what it is. I think I see a lower feather slightly out of place. Couldn't you groom him better? Come on Tom get with the program.

If this can't make it I will be a long way from getting anything in.

Very interesting pic. Although for some reason I felt like I was doing a handstand for some reason

Maybe all the blood rushed to thier head while reviewing it causing the rejection

I really liked that one, I can only think there was a picture that was similar and probably a zoo picture. Not quite fair if that's the case.

I'm suprised. How many eagles do you see hanging up-side-down???

Seriously though, I'm suprised it didn't make it. It's an excellent capture.

Nice shot Tom - I don't understand the selection criteria either - I believe it involves a roulette wheel, some tarot cards and a Ouija board....

I think that it involves your description more than anything

At least the 4 photo's of mine which actually got accepted had a description how I got them, and I don't think that the others did.

I'm wondering myself what the criteria is. I've yet to have one approved out of 6-7 submissions but I really looked at them hard before submitting....who knows...
