Sharp and well exposed. Cropping a bit less will help as IQ is not great as presented and bird is a bit too big in the frame IMHO.

Hi Satish,
Love the perch, details and exposure. Agree with Ofer about crop.

Hi Satish, I like the eye level capture here, and you certainly have exposed this fellow nicely. Yes to good sharpness, and waiting for him to have turned his head towards you would have been first prize. :w3

Lovely portrait captured here! Like the colours.. Looks a tad bit over sharpened to me.
Well captured.

A better HA, and more room all around would have been great here. Neat perch...love the little leaves and the berries. Well exposed and sharp...but the flanks look sharper than the head.

Beautiful combination of color in this Satish, fine detail is excellent, love the up curving branch and berries add interest, sits beautifully in the frame as is in my opinion = " if the detail is there then fill the frame with it " Possibly a tad over sharpened, but overall a very eye catching shot, very well done.

Hi Satish,
I, too, find the bird a bit big in the frame.
I like the perch and the berries.
Agree re: a bit oversharpened,

Thanks all of you for your valuable comments.I will take care of your suggestions.Agree about tight crop..looking the bird bit big in the frame.
I could not keep the more space around the bird because right side is looking too bushy and had distracting trunk of tree.
Regards.
Satish.
