Krishna love the background colors blur is Ok just way too small in the frame. Lots of emptiness. TFS

I know that's a lot of space, but I love this canvas as is. TFS

I like the concept, Krishna. Colors are pleasing and the composition works. However, there's just way too much space in front of the subject as others have mentioned. IMO this frame would've worked if there were multiple birds or if cropped tighter. I do like the attempt though. Nice to see something different :bg3:

The color is great. Not so sure on the blur. Would like to see many birds not just one.

Agree with the above comments colors (great), blur (OK), and space (too much), but I appreciate the effort to try something different, particularly as I have no creative ability for shots like this.
