A tree, with pigeons. I look forward to seeing these trees when they get their leaves. They're all over Wiesbaden and the trunks/branches are very interesting because they're barkless, kinda.

Shot the same day as my Street Photography entry.

Awwwwww. . .what a cool photo! But disappointingly underrated!!

It's so amazing that you were shooting up in the air, and you got such perfect lighting on the tree and birds, and a beautiful blue sky. Every time I do that, I get nothing but silhouettes!

Great job!

Wow! This is gorgeous! I didn't vote in this challenge (the first challenge I've entered that I haven't voted on, sadly enough) or you would have gotten a big score and a comment from me. Pitch perfect without post-processing. Well done!

I voted this down (5) as I did not believe there was enough of the tree, congratulations for such a strong finish.

Very nice composition. The grey and purple on the birds looks really nifty with the deep blue sky.

your focus depth should have been wider/longer to include your subjects in sharp focus

They look cold. Colorful in places, but definitely poufy.
