    Lovely birds. My eyes keep wandering off to that big ole' tree branch though.
    I wonder what the other folks think about this...

    I don't think it would be too tight if the vertical part of the branch were cropped. The steep angle can't be fixed. Nice colors and good sharpness.

    What lens??? What camera? Technical info??? Sharp. Sky too electric blue. Perch much too large. Juxtaposition of subjects not pleasing.

    I'll be the odd man out on this one, because I find this image rather appealing. I like the size, shape and texture of the perch
    and the juxtaposition of the birds. I would lighten the sky considerably, set white point on the birds, and also bring out
    shadow details on them.

    Thanks for the make-over, David. I will take your tips back to the drawing board.
