Hi Phillip

Excellent formation, would work better for me against a plainer or more out of focus background. Good to catch all the whoopers head's visible. Often with this type of shot one bird's head will be hidden behind another bird.

cheers

I think they need to be just a bit higher or lower to seperate them from the divide line of the background.

I have to agree - its a nice capture of the birds but doesn't quite work somehow with the background

Agree with John's comments - but I still like the shot!
