Mohsen,

Very beautiful sparrow image. Loved that yellow throat.
Good clean bg and nice sharp image.
Wish the perch behind was not intersecting the bird.

Beautiful bird, I like the dab of yellow on the throat. Excellent IQ overall, I would just darken the perch and I too wish it didn't intersect the bird's face.

Cute bird. Nice sharp image with good pose. Nice smooth BG. Agree with comments about perch being behind bird.

great pose and eye contact, the exp is fine good work, the perch is not so good, too distracting

A bunch of Quick Masks with Layer Masks, Select Color and Linear Burn on the bright branch, some Clone Stamp Tool. And a bit of Eye Doctor work. All as detailed in Digital Basics. (https://store.birdsasart.com/shop/item.aspx?itemid=252)

YAW Moshen, Even more could have been done with this one but I did not want to push it; I just got rid of the most obtrusive branches.

Whoa artie's repost takes it to another level and i can say now the intersection of that brach's power went down to almost 40% with some removal.
