I love this image. I like how the plant leaves are swirling about an axis. The only thing I would change is making the photo a little more vibrant. I'm not sure if it's the lighting or exposure, but it seems just a tad dull.

Initial thoughts
Interesting content ΓΆ€“ nice silhouettes ΓΆ€“ a bit dark.

Composition/ Content
I like the unusual composition ΓΆ€“ centred on one axis but not on the other. I also like the natural element of the symmetry ΓΆ€“ the symmetry is in the two birds doing the same thing on either side of the feeding platform ΓΆ€“ but in terms of actual shapes ΓΆ€“ they are in different positions. I find that interesting. I prefer the bird on the right which I find more appealing in silhouette form.

Background
Seems very dark ΓΆ€“ I think a lighter blue would allow better display of the silhouettes.

Camera Work - Technical
I like the motion captured in the wings.

Fits The Challenge
I believe so, yes.

My Opinion On The Photo
Interesting, intriguing but not wholly appealing because of the darkness. Not quite enough to really pull me back for repeat viewings.

I think that the red of the feeder spoils the mood of the shot. B&W?

Nice idea, especially to shoot them as silhouettes. Now if you could just have got them to hold the same position (only kidding :-)

One of my fav's for this challenge. Not perfectly symmetrical, but like you could plan that? Great great capture - 10
