I like the colors and the stark erector set feel of the branches. If you had included a strong white point, this would have "felt" better to me. But in fact, I'm not sure where you would have gotten it.
Fitting for this challenge! Not the most exciting photo, but it works. I like the background color. not typical and that makes it interesting. focus and clarity seem ok, and although I wish there were a bit more light on the birdies themselves, I don't think that would be possible without hurting some other aspect of the photo. Overall nice. ~Heather~
