Awesome!!! Very nice detail on the bird and great moment to capture. The tree in the background competes a bit for my attention with its strong lines; might be less of a distraction if it were desaturated.

It's hard to find good items to use for framing. That's what made this challenge so challenging IMO. Yes, the trees do frame the city in the background, but they don't really add anything to the impact of the photo. If they had leaves, maybe...as is, not really. Not trying to be overly critical, just leaving some thoughts on first impressions. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

A bit more drama in the sky might have helped. To judge from the shadows a polarising filter would probably have darkened the sky a bit. I would also have tried getting lower to try and put a bit of gap between the branches and the buildings.

This is really neat. I really like the look of the wings The only thing that bothers me (and I am nit-picking here) is the halo around the beak.......that bright orange really stands out.

Very interesting how the birds meet up with the number on the boat. Good capture.
