Three brothers

Tri Brata ("three brothers") is a set of three rocks at the entrance to the Avacha Bay. This picturesque stack, or kekur, is considered a symbol of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky.

Local lore suggests that they are three brothers who went to defend the town from a tsunami and turned to stone.

Gorgeous scene and light. I like the birds in flight giving scale.

A beautiful scene, Sergey.  As Kah Kit says, the flying birds are a fine touch of added interest and sense of scale.  I would try gently toning down the brightest area along the right edge and see what you think.

Nice scene, Sergey. I agree with Mark regarding turning down the brightness on  the right. I'd also like to see the left-most stack separated from the background a little more. The birds add a nice touch.
