Wow Mita that is awesome. Super detail nice and close. I imagine you already tried to bring up the birds left eye a little?

That's a real beauty, Mital. I agree with Cheryl's observation about the left eye.
The detail and the brown hues are excellent. The direct gaze is very compelling.

<embed id="application/x-exifeverywhere" type="application/x-exifeverywhere" width="0" height="0">Love the warm light, eye contact, and great detail. You've done pretty well with the side lighting. I'd lighten the shaded iris a little, and maybe bring up the dark feathers some.

Mital, excellent IQ. loved the textures and the BG. Your techs are perfect..especially the f-stop to cover the bill and the eye.

there's little one can do with the side light on the bird which brings up the shadows on the other side ,would have been good if the light was on your back which would have been ideal But all said this is still a Brilliant image man
