Hello Santiago, I love the effect created here with the overexposure since it makes it look like the bird and wires were darkened and cut out and pasted onto a white ground. Excellent clarity and very sharp, the outlines and silhouettes are crisp and clean. Good vertical framing and cropping to have the wires going diagonally across the shot at a heavy angle, and that thin black frame ties in with the black wires and tones in the shot. Amazing contrasts, of course, and great point of view to get a sort of profile shot of the bird on the wire, making all the subjects identifiable. I might recommend decentering the bird a bit though so that there's balance and so that the viewer's eye can go all around the shot. Maybe cropping a tiny bit off either side might help with that. Nice simple and thin signature too that suits the simplicity of the composition and shot yet does not distract at all from it. TFS!
