i think i loved the wink (not exactly wink) but a membrane layered on one eye.

Lovely colours and sharp detail, Mital. I normally groan when I get an image with the nictitating membrane over the eye but in this case having the main eye sharp and clear makes this an interesting illustrative picture.

I agree. It works well. Beautifully detailed portrait with an interesting difference. Nice color and background.

Hi Mital,

I fully agree with the posted comments, particularly Tony's. Well captured.

Agree with the previous comments. Nice capture.

Love the colors and detail and a very interesting image concerning the eyes. I actually like seeing the membrane from time to time...especially when it's detailed and you can see the blood vessels it has. But eye contact is everything though.

Mital, I love it! Nice sharp details and the nictitating membrane adds interst to me. It might make a great Fract.:)

Mital, Nice capture. Agree with Tony on eye comments.

Beautiful capture. Great colors and details. Nictating membrane is OK her for me as well.

denise : am sure it will look fab. will soon post after my trip finish and will get back.

Till than Wish you all a very Happy Diwali and Prosperous new year ...

Excellent detail Mital, and just love the colours too. You have captured a perfect HA, and the 'wink' works for me.

Nice portrait! The warm light really brings out the colors in the feathers.

Nice look. Like the pose and the DOF of the image.
