Satisfy, lovely bird, good wing position, sharpness, good light. The perch is a bit too center for me. I'd suggest taking a little bit off the right. Well done. Loi

Beautiful and colorful image.

Satish:

Lovely colors, well exposed, nice pose, well scaled perch.

You can probably get by with a slightly slower shutter speed to allow you to reduce the ISO.

Cheers

I like the colourful bird, raised wings and BG. Nice image Satish.

Hi Satish, you wont go wrong with striking colours when these guys start flying about. Not easy to get perching shots, so well done with the timing. As mentioned, colours look spot on, great OOF BG, and if anything, I would move him to the right a touch more.

This is so stunning, love the colours and sharp roller. The image pops on my scene, love it. I agree with moving the bird back slightly.

Satish this is beautiful, my only suggestion would be to place slightly to the right and maybe just a tad of NR.
