Try full-viewing it. You can see, like, every single feather. Also, the bird is completely in focus, with only the background blurred. And it's from a full-on angle, which means the camera was on the ground instead of taken from a standing position.
I've gone through almost every bird stock available on dA, and most of them are crap. This one looks great and would be very easy to use as a drawing reference or in a photomanipulation. That's why it got the DD.

God, how I hate these feathered fleas... I hate them so much that I don't even like this photo.

This is my opinion, I am not an ignorant, just because I do not share your "taste". Deal with it or go f*** yourself.

Hhm. Wow, that's nice. How kind of you.
Feathered fleas? Calling a pigeon a feathered flea is being ignorant. They're nothing like fleas. They can't even get fleas. A kind of flea, yes. Keds.

Oh, how could I not be knowing that you are the one defining who is ignorant and who not. Who could I *ever* doubt your eternal and infinite wisdom.
"They can't even get fleas" <-> "A kind of fleas, yes"
First of all, this is a contradiction in itself. Then pigeons are living with and from humans, which makes them a little like parasites. Fleas are parasites. "Tree Rat" doesn't fit "perfectly" as well, but it sounds funny, deal with it.
Why is it so difficult for you to leave other people their opinions? Learn not to contradict yourself in four little lines of ill-thought-out trivial chit-chat and then we can talk again.
From now on, I will ignore you.

People seem to miss the fact that this is a STOCK PHOTO.
I think it's an excellent photo in that respect. It has no disturbing items in the background and it shows the anatomy and appearance of the subject with clarity and focus. It's an excellent stock photo. Congrats on the DD

In my opinion, we should reclassify them as members of the rat family...

Well, honestly I don't get it. I'm not trying to be rude but I don't see why this should be a DD.

This is one good shot of a Pidgeon, since there hard to even take a picture of.
I notice this was a Stock photo, so I can see why you left the file so large and why you would get the DD, they like to expose the stock photos out so people would notice. Which its actually pretty helpful, least for me. As a person that adores pidegons - well any bird - he looks like a proud birds of a low class 8]

in contrary with what most people's comment
that this deviation doesn't deserve a dD
i believe that this deserves the dD
the detail is crisp and well... sharp enough to see what should be seen
this photo can be a great reference and a great element.
and i thank u for sharing this to the community ^__^
jz ignore those people who says that this sucks or doesn't deserve the spotlight of Dd
they're just jealous they haven't got one
too jealous that they didn't notice this is in the stock category ^__^

antosenpai In reply to 18thsummer [2008-07-11 18:21:44 +0000 UTC]
or maybe they noticed it is quite unuseful as a stock photo looking at the previous stock photos chosen as DD, so it does not deserve such a spotlight.

at some point ye ahahahaha while i'm typing the comment
i've browse around to look at stocks with dD... i've noticed that though they are in stock and i agree with you
yet still this might be useful in the long run... mybe the person who make it a dD sees something that we don't ^___^
but still most of the bad comments look at this not as a stock photo ^___^

It's a stock photo. They deserve DDs too, but perhaps for different reasons than "art photography"

It's an ok shot.. but I don't know if it deserves a DD?! There are so many talented artists out there waiting to get picked and you chose ... a pigeon snapshot??
Well... congratulations anyway.
