    Satish;

    Very nice pose, love the detail showing in the feet, BG shows nice sense of environment without being overpowering. I might move him a sliver to the right if you have the canvas to work with.

    Cheers

    Satish, I find this a peaceful image with the muted colors. The techs are good. Agree with Randy that the subtle bg gives a hint of habitat which is not over powering. Small changes in comp are an improvement.

    Repost is very nice.
    IQ is excellent and I love the environment with the OOF grasses.
    Good head position and love the little feet!

    Hi Satish - Yes I like your repost here moving the bird slightly off center. Very sharp image of the Munia and BG works well.

    Hi Satish, great look back pose, and I like the overall detail on the bird. I also like the OOF grasses in the BG, and if anything, I would maybe darken the pupil.

    The repost looks bettrer for sure. Excelln picture, I like the pose and the perch, Satish. I always like birds with earth colours dominating the plumage.
