Nice! Beautiful light you had, and you have two perfect poses. Minor tweaks to improve the image: CW rotation, good crop from the bottom (close to half of it), and toning down the dark line above the right bird's back. Well done on the techs :-)

[Axel Hildebrandt]

Light, details and head angles look good. I would go for a tighter crop and a lower angle would have helped in this setting. I wish there were no shadow of the bird on the left on the other one.

thanks guys, if I go tighter on the bottom the reflection from the birds will be clipped, do you think that is OK?

[arash_hazeghi]

BTW, how come the thumbnail is black?

[Stu Bowie]

Sweet light on both of them, and like the raised foot from the guy at the back. I would also crop quite a bit off the bottom, and agree a CW rotation is needed.

Thanks guys, I updated the photo with all the comments incorporated.
