Looks like they need a coach to get them all organized and working together! (no vote, just making a few comments)

I like the way you incorporated so much of the scenery with the birds in this shot. It all fits nicely.

Border or no border, that is the question.

The green grass in the background seems to not belong in a photo of a frozen lake. But I do like the fact that it adds some color... an all snow background would be rather bland.

cool. Well processed to bring out a lot of color in the otherwise bland bg. Not a fan of this type of border...

Nice shot, love the colors, my eyes want to focus on the woods instead of the geese...not sure if thats because of the comp, or the focus itself, 6.

I like this image, the BG is very pleasing (one of the few in focus BG's I've liked in this challenge.

Great shot and colors - and the border works well with it.
