The birds up higher in the sky look a little oversharpened.

This shot feels a bit too busy to me, I would think cropping out some (all) tree or bridge may help it feel not so busy and help viewer to focus on flight aspects. Sharp image,

Nice shot. Having taken similar photos (gulls, though, not pigeons), I know it can be tough to get so many in the air at once. Nice exposure and sharpness.

A very busy image, IMHO needs a tighter crop but very good for all that.

Good capture although there is something about the composition that is bothering me. I think the crane out the back is distracting somewhat. There isn't too much you could have done about it though I guess, a tighter crop would have cut out too many birds.

You caught flight, but I'm not fond of the composition and light.

Way too random for me. Where's the focal point? What is there to draw the viewer into looking at the shot more closely? Had you been stood on the bridge with the birds flying towards you I think you may have got a much more engaging shot.

Good shot, but the structure and vehicle (whatever that yellow thing is) on the right distract me from the birds. I think this would be much better if the right side was cropped.

Far too much sharpening, you can see artifacting around all the pigeons as a result. Could do with a bit more saturation. Copmposition seems a bit chaotic. 5
