Very nice. Simple composition, I like the way you have left the birds black, it gives a focus to the picture. I like the textures both in the foreground and the sky. The twigs at the side add an extra texture and also add interest. Good luck in the competition.

Lovely digital art. The contrast of the Black and White birds stands outs well against the softly pastel background. Beautiful composition. Best of luck in the contest :)

What a wonderful surprize. Thank you ever so much, Snopaw! Very very much appreciated. It's always encouraging to get a positive review from a pro photographer. A bright spot in a rather quiet day. Thank you dear friend. :)

I love this,it's striking.The starkness of the birds against
that beautful white on white
and a tinge of color makes a
lovely focal point.
This would make a lovely
Holiday card~
Best of Luck~

A beautiful entry for the contest. There is enough white and impressive shades of gray to make the picture interesting; but what really set it of, are the few spots of color and the strong contrast of the black birds. The composition is perfect. There is great harmony in this winter scenery despite the cold and impressive cloudy sky. Best luck for the contest.

Oh man, this is greeting card material. to me! Amazing white! Love the top colors, some blue and shaded areas. The branch with those two birds are so nice. Love the broken-up black to showcase them. Amazing! So well done.

Extremely well done ... Taking a classic if not oriental motif and bringing it forth is stunning... I love that you have these long beaked black beauties on the tips of the branch ... Not knowing whether one of them just land as the other tries not to loose his grip or just maybe those cool winds are blowing this dogwood limbs .. Extremely well done
