Does look like two rival gangs fighting !!! I like the overall feel Could only wish not to have some of the head merges but in group images is difficult ... that is what makes this type image so difficult. Did not see the compensation but image seems a little underexposed? How was the histogram?
Framing wise might have pointed the camera to the right and going wider overall to avoid clipping some of the birds !! I like what your trying here !!!!
Agree with Alfred on all counts. It is the head mergers of the two young birds in the rear that hurt his otherwise interesting image.
