Another beautifully colored and detailed image! Those darling youngsters with those bright yellow eyes really capture my attention. As my eyes move upwards the similar crossed heads/bills of the adults mimic the position of the babies very well. Makes an eye-catching composition. I wonder how this would look if you tightened the composition so the focus is just on the positions of the eyes and heads. Maybe crop tight in on the left to just the back of the tail of the adult. On the right crop in to just behind the right-most leg. Just thinking out loud.

Outstanding composition, what a great shot! Nice processing too. I like both versions but give the edge to the OP.
The clarity and post - processing of this image make it really striking. I think I like the OP too, but both are beautiful.
well done. I was surprised that you used oilpaint filter...can't tell it. Still, very clear and a great family capture. Love how the babies are looking up and the parent looking down.....connectivity. Like the OP better.
Hi, Stuart, another vote for the OP. Very nice capture.
Marvelous detail, clarity and colors! A striking image. Love those little ones looking up. Nice family composition. Is oil paint the only thing you did to the image? Did you shoot RAW or jpeg?
Wonderful, subtle effect on a fantastic capture! I vote for the OP. I'd maybe take just a little off both edges, but not enough to cut into or crowd the birds.
