What a superb photo! The composition is nicely done; I love the use of negative space. And I think the black and white really makes this photo stand out. This was a very difficult contest to judge; there were so many great photos. Congratulations!

I absolutely love this photo! The red eyes really pop against the blue feathers of the two birds. And the timing of the crisscross is perfect; it makes it look like a single face with the two eyes. The focus and clarity is great! This was a competitive contest...well done and congratulations!

What an amazing photo! The colors are so brilliant and the focus is spot on! I can clearly see the texture of the feathers on the heads of the birds. The two birds are clearly fond of each other and their affection shows through in the photo. This contest had a lot of great entries, but yours was my obvious pick for first place! Congratulations!

For this contest I would like to see your photos of a pair of birds of the same species, either wild or tame. For example, you could show two Canadian geese flying, two hummingbirds in a nest, or two penguins in the zoo, just to name a few. They can have different colouring as long as they are the same species; for instance the male often has different colouring than the female. Please no composites. I hope you have fun with the contest.

These are very strange looking birds, but it is a great photo! I love that you chose black and white. The detail and texture in the faces of the birds is superb and the composition is wonderful. I love the emotion that you can see in their eyes; they have great affection for one another. Great job!
