    Love the title and the very cool action you captured here Jan. Light, color, detail, and comp look good... the BG is beautiful.
    Terrific image that I enjoyed very much. Well done.

    Nice behavior and interaction. The yellowish part of the BG on the left is a little destructing. Nice work.

    Ha ha this is awesome! Superb interaction, and both birds sharp. The BG could use a bit of desaturation on the brightest yellows, and perhaps smoothing of the harder edges above the birds. Lots of impact and a joy to view!!
