So here it is, my critique. Starting with the good; The colours are just great you shot this at a perfect time of day. you've processed this very well, with shots like this there is the tempatation to overprocess to make the colours stand out even more you've avoinded this and that's great.

A couple things I don't care for much. 1) that border. either a simpler border or none at all would do. the problem with doing too much of a border is it detracts from the photo it self which you never want to do. 2) the branches, to me atleast, make the photo feel very busy. my eye's don't know where to look so they look everywhere. maaybe zooming in on a smaller area or (if you have the lens for it) just one bird.

I didn't vote in this challenge, but I would have given it a 7

good job.

Very pretty, I like how the composition is punctuated all over by these bird shadows.

I like the simple composition. The contrast within the wood is also pleasing. Nice DOF. Back to bump you up to 8.

This is a super capture, and certainly up there in my own personal top 10. The soft sunset palette is very attractive.
