I liked the first picture for its composition, dirty looks, all those silhouettes and the textures... Yet, taking the risk of sounding ridiculous, I'll say that the shining of the sun through those transvers and parallel shadow takes my eye far than necessary... ...Well, I couldn't help... :) The second pic is very nice too for its almost abstract composition, suiting minimal color combination, and the birdy caught with a handsome profile... Nice... May I share an image of mine after this..?
