This is a real stunner. You got terrific details in your feathers, and your perch and BG are awesome. Love seeing the delicate feet, and those whiskers!!!

[Mike Milicia]

Very cool bird with excellent detail and BG!

Might consider moving the bird a bit more to the right in the frame.

[Robert Holguin]

Wonderful shot.
Very nice background, excellent feather detail, great perch, and well composed.
Very well done.

It is a very beautiful bird. I too would not get tired of photographing beauties like that.

Sensational Ritesh ! What a beautiful subject and such sharp fine detail even in the darker areas, nice small perch and lovely smooth backdrop....wishing the perch didn't have the splintered end, but that's only a minor aspect as the rest more than makes up for it.

[Robert Kimbrell]

Nice detail in this shot. a very nice catchlight in his eye. I can see why he is one of your favorite.

[Ed Cordes]

Super detail with a really comical expression. Exposure perfect and I like the comp as is.

[Daniel Cadieux]

A stunning subject for sure! Difficult backlit situation, to me some flash would have helped, but you still did well enough here. Not my favorite pose I must admit but like Marina I love the tiny feet!
