Satish,

Interesting shot with both eye visible and in focus. Sharp image and well done. Is this species different from the "Japanese White Eye" that has found its way to Hawaii? It looks very similar.

[Karl Egressy]

It is not the more traditional HA but I like it as it shows both eyes. The colours and details are awesome, Satish.

[Don Nelson]

excellent rendition of feather detail and coloration. I like the non-traditional head turn with both eyes visible.
well done.

We call them " Silvereyes " over here and looks very much the same. Unusual front on shot, but works nicely seeing both eyes. Nice detail showing on the back and these little birds are often difficult to get detail to show through. My only thought was the noise reduction/blur to the flower head has made it look a bit odd.

[Sidharth Kodikal]

Stunning feather details and I like the head-on view, showing off those white eyes.
I like your comp. Interesting perch - what is it?

[Frank Schauf]

Beautiful portrait, great details and sharpness.

Interesting one Satish, the composition is lovely and the HA is superb , very unconventional as others have said but interesting all the way
i understand that the perch has purple on it ad that color visible on the head of the bird is right since it may be feeding on it, however i see a purple cast on the greys and blacks on tail and wing , is it there or is my Mac monitor really playing tricks on me

The spectacles look great with the head on view of the bird. Cool texture to the perch.

Different head on view. The eye rings make it work. Great exposure and feather detail. Unique perch and nice BG. Well done
