    Those finely detailed back feathers as lovely Satish and liking the smooth but lightly textured backdrop, removal of a few OOF branches was a good idea and well done too as I see no evidence. Always like a good closeup portrait and this one has worked nicely.

    Impressed too at the lack of noise at ISO 800, I wish I could do this more often with my 7D

    Very nice and different image.
    I like the sheerness of the feather and the way the beak shows through.
    Lovely BG as well.

    Very nice Satish. I'm not sure that the focus is on the eye, but it's not too far off. Very clean image at ISO 800 (Dan has shown many times that this is possible, and you have done a great job here).
