Hi Asad, not familiar with the species, thanks for sharing. I think you can deepen the blue a tad (PS curves adjustment) and possibly levels adjustment for the bird to make it stand out more against background. Nice eye contact, keep posting!

Asad seems to be a nice image. the crop factor you used is very high should not have such noise at 50% even with just 320 iso.

btw would have been good if you 've cropped wider view instead giving a portrait feel. not always we can get portrait shots and i think this images would have been look good with wide view showing more of sky and an open dead tree (seems to be).

I agrre with Mital ... a wider crop would be better.

Hi Asad: You have a gorgeous bird here, and I like the environment in which you photographed it as well. Unfortunately, the quality of the photo is not what it might otherwise be b/c of the large crop. We don't see as much detail and sharpness as we would if it were a larger crop. I would try it with a wider crop in a similar composition and see if you can acquire more detail and sharpness. Look forward to seeing more of your work.
