Welcome James. It is great to see so many new faces here at BPN. For SAT, I would prefer something between the ORIG and the re-post. I like the image (which could use a bit more sharpening on the bird and the tree), and the clouds are really sweet. I would have framed a bit wider to include the fronds along the lower frame edge.
