I had just left a site where I was taking pictures for the straight lines contest when I saw a ton of birds flying around. When I stopped at the light, most of them landed on the bridge. I had to take this photo through my windshield in a limited amount of time. The sky was balanced over the bridge and I liked the angle at which it was taken.
Only cropped and adjusted the exposure and brightness since the bridge was hard to see because the sun was behind it.

this is too far away for the birds to be interesting to me, I can barely make out their form. In the future for a shot like this I would also straighten the horizon
For some reason, panoramic crops do not usually do well here (a shame really)
Next time, use the maximum available pixels (640 wide) as smaller pictures get hurt as they are harder to see the detail in them.
The colours are a bit uninspiring. Some PP could have got a more vivid shade of blue in the sky
Cool! It looks great, but would have been a bit more dramatic if the birds were either at the top or the bottom of the frame and in more of a straight line. Great feel though.
