    Lovely image Stuart, I really like the two in similar flight poses. The only thing that could improve this imo is to have the left wing of the front bird seperated from the head, nice image!

    Great separation and staggered . Symmetry is good except for previously mentioned wing-head overlap of the first bird.

    Nice symmetry and I like your comp, Stuart. The diagonals in the BG echo the birds. May be an option to select and add some blur to the BG.

    As you say Stu, great to get the two and both sharp. Still the old 20D I see.
    Pity the light was from the side but still a nice shot.
    i am with Tony on the BG.
