    Nice sparkle in the eye, and nicely isolated, very smooth backdrop and pretty much perfect dof getting the whole bird sharp. Nice fine detail, but I wonder if a tad over sharpened

    Ram - another beautiful portrait with excellent details, pleasing bg and nice tones. I might prefer a little more room below the tail if you have it, but by no means a major nit.

    TFS,
    Rachel

    Fine image with great detail. Seems to have a slight color cast(blue/cyan???).

    Hi Ram, you have captured the finer detail very well, and with good DOF on the flycatcher. I like the softer colours in the BG, and Im seeing a touch of magenta on the perch. A little more space below will work too.

    Excellent detail and nice BG!
    A bit tight in the frame for my taste.

    Agree there seems to be a color cast but hard for me to judge as I am not familiar with the species.
    Perch does look to be a bit too magenta.

    Ram, agree that perch looks a bit too magenta.

    Awesome shot, nevertheless. the bill-tip-to-tail-tip DOF coverage is excellent. You got lots of sharp details and nice natural catchlight in the eye. I'd also vote for more room around.

    I can only agree with the above comments, great image that with a few minor tweaks will be even greater

    Thanks every body on your comments . Regrading more room below i could not do anything about it as its almost a full frame . I have used the as shot in white balance settings while converting Raw image i really don't know where the magenta has come from .
