I like the original image, and I can see why you tilted it, but the stark white just doesn't do it for me, sorry... a darker color might make a difference though, perhaps a near black that matches the color of the silhouettes?

I find the bright patch of the sky on left distracting, maybe you could lower its exposure a bit. Also, the right-most goose is in front of a cloud which separates it from the others and makes it hard to spot. I would be tempted to clone it out.

I like the colors and geese, but I find the tilted horizon very distracting. I have never seen it used effectively in landscape shots, IMO. Is that the sun that is causing the part of the sky on the left to be so bright? If so, I wonder how it would look if you used a wider angle and included it.

I agree about cloning out the far right goose.
