I wish for a little separation...
C&C welcome and appreciated,
Raul

I don't mind the separation between them, I also like very much the poses and sharpness, I just wish for a better light, but with what you had you did great! Congratulations!

I too don't mind how close they are. I like this one. I would also have loved if some more would have been there to create a wing pattern.

I also don't mind the lack of seperation. The whites are blown at the shoulders, and the colours look rather muddy around the faces and along the necks - caused by heavy highlight recovery?

Thanks for comments and critiques.

Daniel,
Not sure if it is because the heavy highlight, I don't have the original with me. I'll take a look once I get home, but I am sure if do to post-processing.
