Sorry but never heard that one before. I do like the way the stone matches the birds so well and all of those contrast with the green grass.

NIce use of DOF, not sure I really like the pano look. But it fits the challenge well and is a nicely done shot. Maybe bump the saturation a touch and maybe the contrast. I'd also like to see a little more sharpness with it. Overall well done. Its a 6 from me.

I like your choice in colors - green background with gray rock and gray pigeons. Simple colors can may a big difference! I wonder if taking out the yellow flower would benefit the photo? I also compliment you on presenting the entire bird, from head to tail feather! The two different poses also bring out the pigeons’ character.
