Very interesting image. Some of the shapes are almost exact replicas of one another. Neat how they blur more as you move left through the frame. I like the hint of color in the sky also.
I like the black and white look and feel of this image with the shading going from dark in the lower right corner to light in the upper left corner of the image. Also the blur effect on the birds is going in the same direction from relatively sharp to faded out. Well done.
