I think this should have scored higher than it did. It's a great photo - well done.

This was very clever set up, and it totally works for me.
I am disappointed that it did not score higher than it did, as it deserved a much higher placement IMO.....
I like the placement of the forks, also like the composition.
The Dof and the softness, balances the focused detail areas well.....

I like the background color and the clear details. They do look like birds in formation. Do forks fly south for the winter?

Great teal color, definitely makes me think of the sky.

I nice concept. The use of two different types of forks in the foreground is a bit distracting though. Also, using a deeper 'sky' blue could have tied the birds theme in better.
