Thanks for viewing, critiques and comments,

I am on my laptop so critique may not be "up to snuff"!
Whites look excellent and I always enjoy black BG's. Adds lots of drama to the image.
Really like how the light has lit up the feet. Nice wing position.
Since you have already cloned out some BG branches I would go ahead and remove all of them!

Beautiful frame. Love the whites of the bird against that dark BG. I don't mind the branches Satish, they add to the BG.

I agree leave the branches, it looks natural, a really nice shot excellent exposure, lovely detail.
Excellent exposure. The bird stands out well against the dark BG. Lovely full downstroke wing position. I think I might prefer it without the foliage, but no big deal. Great image Satish.
A beauty of a shot, Satish. Great detail on the bird, which really rocks against the lovely dark bg. Wonderful light. Stunning with or without the foliage.
Thank you every body for your feed back and kind compliments.
I will post the image without foliage.
Regards,
Satish.
The dark background goes well with this bird, makes it pop. Nice details, perfect exposure and pose, Satish.
Hi Satish, excellent exposure on the whites, and you managed a great flight pose too. Before reading Gail's comment, I too, would remove the branches in the URC. :w3
Thank you Karl and Stuart Sir for your feed back and kind comments. Here is the repost without greens in the BG.

Satish.
Yes a nice repost but I still reckon it looks stark compared to the original:w3
