I like your choice of subject. Was wondering when this was gonna show up (it said it was uploaded but then it wasn't there haha). I agree about the antiquity and I like your composition. The background stuff is a little distracting but sometimes that's unavoidable when you're trying to get a certain angle. Nice job, though. :)
I like the idea here and I would have cropped the photo so that just the birdhouse is visible. Focusing is just right on the image though. I'm not one to critique other's work anyway.
Nice close-up and I like the restrained colour. I think I agree about the crop question, I wonder what slightly wider would have looked like. That said, the tight crop really emphasises the shapes. Nice idea.
