Initial thoughts
Interesting content ΓΆ€“ nice silhouettes ΓΆ€“ a bit dark.
Composition/ Content
I like the unusual composition ΓΆ€“ centred on one axis but not on the other. I also like the natural element of the symmetry ΓΆ€“ the symmetry is in the two birds doing the same thing on either side of the feeding platform ΓΆ€“ but in terms of actual shapes ΓΆ€“ they are in different positions. I find that interesting. I prefer the bird on the right which I find more appealing in silhouette form.
Background
Seems very dark ΓΆ€“ I think a lighter blue would allow better display of the silhouettes.
Camera Work - Technical
I like the motion captured in the wings.
Fits The Challenge
I believe so, yes.
My Opinion On The Photo
Interesting, intriguing but not wholly appealing because of the darkness. Not quite enough to really pull me back for repeat viewings.

| I think that the red of the feeder spoils the mood of the shot. B&W? |

| Nice idea, especially to shoot them as silhouettes. Now if you could just have got them to hold the same position (only kidding :-) |

| One of my fav's for this challenge. Not perfectly symmetrical, but like you could plan that? Great great capture - 10 |

| Nice capture, and an interesting silhouette! Larger file size (up to 150k per site rules) might have eliminated some of the JPEG artifacts that are showing up in your background. |

| I definitely see balance, if not symmetry. I am totally not crazy about the very dark shot. It does have kind of a negative space feel, but does not have a lot of impact for me when lighted (or non lighted!) this way. |

| man, that would have been a guaranteed winner if they were closer in sync (I know that would be pretty impossible though)... It's a little dark, could you have jacked up the levels a bit? |

| Nice idea. I don't think that the lighting fits for this image. There needs to be more light and not so much black. Good job. |
