Morteza:
Your bird is sharp, well exposed, pleasant background, sense of action with the wings up.
I might trim down or evict the small twig sticking up on the perch. It would also help to just tone down the brightness a bit.
Had he just taken a bath? Looks like a few droplets in the air.
Cheers

Is this a set-up at a feeder or elsewhere?
the perch is setup next to a springhead in the mountains where birds come to drink water, 50 km east of Arsanjan, Iran.Quote:

Lovely bird, pose and background. Your bird is well exposed and nice and sharp. The left side of the perch being out of focus I find distracting. After you go and find that perfect perch, try to set it up in such a way that it is parallel to where the bird is going to land....if at all possible.
