Sanjeev:
Sharp, well exposed, nice eye. Composition works for me.
I might try some subtle increase in the contrast on the bird only.
A bit more DOF would have been nice, but obviously you weren't blessed with lots of light here.
Cheers

This is wonderful as is. Good sharpness and BG. It looks just a tad bright and a little washed out on my monitor. I wonder too if a crop from the right, with just the bird's head and neck to the end of the top feathers, plus a little off the top to compensate and keep the size ratio, would work as a tight portrait. Overall a very nice photo!

Agree with the DOF, why not have adjust the ss and dof by 1/3 and should still be fast enough to get a sharp photo.

Lovely portrait, not too much wrong at all in my thoughts. I think it sits in the frame well, my only thoughts were the head area, particularly in front of the eye is a little faded looking and maybe a slight darkening of just the bird and/or contrast tweak would be an easy tweak. A little more noise reduction/smoothing to backdrop would also be nice.

Nice portrait shot. I would darken the bird and increase the contrast of the bird only.

Hi Sanjeev, I like the concentrated stare, sharp with good detail throughout. If this were mine, I would maybe come up from the bottom to halfway up the wing.
