This is an unusual image. A great find. I really like the movment of the birds against the blue sky. Image is sharp and well composed although if you could have included the bottom of the birds in the shot I think it would look better than cropped off.
I am not sure about the Plane but it does add to the balance theme I guess.I think I would have cloned the plane out but then that's just a matter of preference I dont suppose you will appreciate my comment if you had been waiting a long time for that jet LOL!
You had a good score and nothing to be ashamed of here. A worthy image and I really cannot add much more I hope that you continue to enjoy your photography and Good luck in the future challenges
If you have any questions please feel free to PM me

there is such a feeling of movement to this shot and it is so alfred hitchcock that is is really nice. I hate to say it but the airplane is not really necessary here and the stark negative space would be just fine. But what the hell, anytime you can compose a beautiful shot and have a plane fly through the picture, I say go for it.- and i guess upon further review the birds do appear to be escaping from the path of teh plane- and yes motion is derived from that so- even better than before!
Wonderful photo. The composition, framing, and placement of subjects totally work for me. Great juxtoposition between airliner and birds, very low noise apparent in the sky, and deep DOF. Overall, very nice shot.... I give an 8
