Hmm I'm sorry to say it doesn't do much for me. The pigeons seem quite soft and their tails(?) look quite damaged. The sky looks a bit grey and miserable. And I would have liked to see a bit more detail in the chimney.

Doubt if he can do much about the sky - if you wait for blue sky up here at present , you might [ if you are very very lucky ] get it lasting for about 30 mins
For the last few weeks it's been grey , grey , or grey - that's if it's not been white and snowing .

Funny, I was pondering going for a complete black contrast.
The poor pigeons did look very scruffy... I have another shot where it is not so noticeable, but cannot see the pigeons head, which I find reduces the interest...
The day was indeed miserably grey

If you flipped the image the N and S would look better but the pigeons would still be displaying their bottoms. I think this is worth a return for a reshoot. Maybe.
