Welcome. We've got a great group here and hope you will stay with us.
Chappers is right - this is a fun image. I think you have captured the bird nicely. I would adjust the crop on this. In general you don't want to put the main element of the image in the center. It has to do with the way our brains perceive and process images. You can read about "the rule of thirds" at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_thirds and http://www.silverlight.co.uk/tutorials/compose_expose/thirds.html. In this image, I would crop on the left. It will make the image more appealing and enhance the impression of the bird looking out at something.
We might not want to let pictures of your bird and my cat get too close to one another.
Thanks for the welcome.
That photo is kind of old but I shall keep that in mind when shooting new ones.
This is what I get for believing my roommate would clean the electric frying pan when I asked him to last weekend before I left to go home.
Definitely organic and not a flower (-: . Looks like hamburger, but what else, I have no idea.
Going to leave that for him to wash.

Everything was looking so pretty in here, thought I would change it up
I wish I had taken the time to take pictures of the stuff we found last year in the fridge.
2 week vacation + fridge failure = forests of mold
Pretty cool looking, but still disgusting.

The way you've composed this on an angle adds to the nausea inducing character. I would put it in the fridge and reheat it for him when he has too much school work to be able to cook.

Simon -- it could be time to post that fungal orange again.

As I was scrolling down I knew you'd say that ......... so here is a variation of it when I first found it in the fridge.

You had to have been a bachelor when this was taken. No one else would have a refrigerator with only two moldy oranges in it.

No - happily married but my son had hidden the fruit at the back of the fridge. So I got the job of cleaning out the microbiological sample. I cleared the surrounding area first before taking the shot.
I like this too. Not your normal flower picture but very enjoyable. There are a few defects on the petals that I would probably touch up but that's personal choice.
^ I like the framing and use of unusual point of view going on here. You made an interesting photo out of something most of us would never have seen in an artistic way. +1This is what I get for believing my roommate would clean the electric frying pan when I asked him to last weekend before I left to go home.

^ I like this better that the one you first posted eons ago when the mold was still young. Having two items in the subject area helps a lot. The colors play off each other.
^ Nice colors in the flower petals, but the strong bright spot to the upper left catches my eye too much. I don't think you could fix that with cropping, but a different point of view would have moved it out. That is part of photography, learning to look at the viewfinder and think of what the final image will look like.
^ Very interesting structure. I have seen this before but don't remember the story behind it. Could you refresh my mind?
^ Maybe we should have a topic: Stagnant Water, Swamps and Bogs I like.

This is Uçhisar Hill and Castle a huge hollowed out fortress in Cappadocia, central Turkey - it dominates the area (no surprise). We did climb to the top once - quite a walk.
This place has history and the churches (carved out inside the mountains) are unbelievable. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cappadocia
