    I think you had a good idea there. I think the cheeks could be brighter though (at least those of some of the chicks) and I wish the entire family, from beak to tail, were in the photo.

    Great head angles thoughout but Desmond is correct in that a wider image would have been better. Looks like the backlight left all of the birds on the dark side... Could be fixed with good PS technique...
