Pradeep,
The sharpness of the birds flying through the clouds is cool. I woud crop a little off the left and some of the top. BTW, what kind of birds are these, GB Herrons?

Pradeep,
The more I see this the more I like it. The position of the wings almost seems like they are trying to swoop in on some prey. :toast:

I wouldn't crop a bit, I love the sense of huge sky that the empty areas give you. Also the proportion is nice between the line of birds on the right and the empty area on the left. IMHO.
