    Love the soft light, the juxtaposition, the water drops (???), and the BKGR. Would love to have seen you catch the near bird with its wings fully down. It takes some practice finding the birds in the frame with the 1.6 X 800.....

    I like the eye contact, soft light, droplets and particularly the BG. Adding to Artie's comments, I would go for a wider crop.

    Thanks Artie. They kept this pose for awhile while "parachuting", when they flapped wings for touching down, the background was not as good :(

    Thanks, Axel! This is full frame, probably I should think abouting adding canvas...
