Wow, awesome shot, beautiful.

[Matthew Jones]

Really beautiful Satish, loving the details and colour you have captured here.

[Jonathan Ashton]

Satish that is excellent, the details and exposure look great DOF is good too. I suppose you know what I am going to say... in a perfect world there would have been a slight head turn. The belly area looks very dark I would see if you can lift it a little bit.
New camera? Looking good!!

[Satish Ranadive]

John, Matthew and Jonathan , Thank you all for your feedback and comments.
Jonathan, yes. Brought the new 7dII . Still not able to use it with full confidence.

Satish.

Beautiful bird, I love the view of the reddish undertail coverts. I like the puffed up pose, but agree a better head angle would have been ideal. I do think the darks are tad washed out and could use a bit of a bump in contrast. I also feel the subject is low in the frame - pointing your lens down a bit more would have helped. Good luck with the 7DII...once you get it figured out and set up to your taste you will love it!

The only little change that I might consider is to see a little more of the perch but that's a tiny nit,I think the bird and the Bg is superb and am fine with the head angle,Very well taken Satish.

Thank you so much Daniel Sir and Keith for your feed back and kind compliments.

Daniel Sir, Agree with you about dark areas. Here rainy season is going on, I have to take the images in cloudy environments only.
Keith, perch is too low, I am nor familiar with 7dII yet.

Regards,
Satish.
