    I like the first one and the last one best. (both of them are sort of families :) )

    I don't think the cross bars behind the peacock/peahen work very well. I like that one the least

    The single rooster is nice but not as interesting as the one with the hens.

    I like #3, the rooster, like the simplicity.

    1 and 3 are great! 3 being the best of the two. In 1, the fire extinguisher distracts and should be cropped out in my opinion. Although the interaction of the two female chickens look like a fight was about to begin and the Rooster is saying "Chick fight!" lol... ;)

    I agree with #3! I'd see if you can get down even lower and shoot directly from ground level to get as much of him in silhouette as possible. #4 has a lot of potential, it's unfortunate that the figures are overlapping each other otherwise it'd be a great shot!

    I really like #3 for its simplicity and the composition. Fun to see all of them though.

    I like the rooster with the hens. I would crop out or clone out the fire extinguisher. If you are a purist, then you could make it B&W to remove the distraction of the red fire extinguisher and the green grass. My second choice is the lone rooster.

    I actually liked the FE as it emphasized the fact that it was real not just B&W. But since I'm in the minority, I'm probably wrong. I think the one with the hens has more life t it. I don't like #5 because I find it confusing. (probably like other people find my hole in the head photo)
