Taken this shot in Telo, north east of Tehran from my car. The lens was supported with Manfrotto 393 mounted on Eckla-eagle car door lens support.
Wish you like it.

Beautiful looking bird.
Excellent pose, very nice soft light, excellent details, and wonderful background.
As for the comp, for some reason I keep wanting to see more of the perch below.
Well done.

Well done. Lovely bird, colors, background (BG) and perch. If you have the room, I would like to see the bird placed a bit to the left with a little more space on the right and less on the left. I think this would help to take the bird out of the middle of the image and to give it more impact.
