Grand shot Satish. Maybe a bit off the top ? No big deal. I once bred these in a greenhouse. !
Cheers

Lovely. black and white all beautifully exposed. Bg complements the birds colours wonderfully, and to my eye IQ is great nice detail and catchlight, decent HA and birds colours well shown.

Satish:

The lighting here gives nice definition with just enough shading to establish a sense of form.

Very harmonious colors.

In a perfect world, wish he was a bit further towards the end of the perch.

Well captured.

Cheers

Great bird, great shot. Only nit is that I might soften the dark arc in the upper right.

The thumbnail doesn't do this justice.
You have a great looking bird, perfectly exposed and a dramatic moody BG .

It's that dark almost stormy looking Bg that sets this off for me,bird that looks really good fits on it nicely, a very nice job Satish.

I like the lighting and the details. Well done Satish.
You know, I have these close to our home and they are the sulkiest birds out. I'd need a hide to capture a nice image, but am too lazy to bother with them. :bg3:

Thank you Akos for the compliments.
