Another interesting image, Shuuun. Simple and effective.
While the triangle is interesting, there still is no strong subject or point of interest to draw in the viewer. The human visual system is keyed to areas that are extremely bright or to areas of high contrast. If those areas occur close to or at the edge of the frame, the viewer's attention will move outside of the image.
That's exactly what is happening here; the attention falls on the three birds and they draw our eyes to that part of the frame. You really haven't given us anything to engage the viewer. Simplification can be a very powerful compositional technique, but there is a point where things can be too simple to be engaging.
I think I would try a slight crop of the left side and a similar amount from the top to reduce distraction.
The basic composition works well enough for me. Three birds at the bottom then a triangular arrangement of what I consider to be hand holds and a lock above them.
Hi there Shuun,
I agree with Geoff's crop suggestion, that makes a much stronger composition.
HTH, Dave
Thanks Manfred M!
Thanks for comments.
Do you mean that black bird on the edge attract viewer to the edge of the image?
Thanks Geoff and Dave!
I tried to crop the image.

That crop looks better to me. Exactly what I had in mind and it makes a more compact scene without all that 'wasted' space at the top.
