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. |

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

| I like this one a lot; the birds stand out well against the background. A common subject, difficult to shoot. Nice job. 9 |

| Love the colours of the sky and the silhouettes. Your frame is overpowering and unnecessary, though. |

What a lovely composition, very warm and inviting- a very beautiful picture, spoilt by the big white border IMO
Not sure how to rate 8 without border and 6 with....7 |

| You have a very good photo here but the border is annoying. |

| The frame is so overdone, I wonder if it's to disguise a lack of sharpness in the image. However, the image is good and it will end up with at least a 6 from me. |

| That border is horrible. Totally kills the shot for me. I'll give it a 6, but without the border and a full 720x720 pic, this could have gotten up to a 10 from me. The concept and colors are fantastic. |

| this image is unique in composition and colors. It deserves a place between the first 10. |

| I quite like this! The diagonals of the limbs supplemented with the horizontal bands of color work very well here - an excellent composition. I like what you've done with the border as well - hopefully you'll put in your comments how you did it - showcases the shot very well! |

| This is a really nice picture - love the lighting and atmosphere. However, the frame really detracts from the picgture. It doesn't seem to belong to this picture at all. |

| i like the photo quite a lot. the colours of the sky and the silhouettes of the birds is very interesting to look at. my only complaint is that frame. i don't think it suits it at all. |

| I love the photo but to be honest the drop shadow needs to go. It's very cheesy looking, the kind that says, "Hi I'm an editing newbie". No offense just telling you how that comes across although I'm sure others new to it may like it. |

| There are quite a few images going for the "birds in landscape" angle, but this one stands out for the artistic colours in the background that complement the silhouettes. 9. |
