    This image was created in March, 2013.Cropped for composition, sharpened and NR applied to BG.I have lost the tip of tail.Tried to stitch two images together ,but image is too vertical.

    ISO: 1600, 1/640, F: 5.6.Evaluating metering. Exposure Bias: +0.7. 550D, @310mm.

    Thanks for viewing and appreciation. C & C are highly appreciated.
    Kind Regards.

    Hi Satish, as mentioned on Sachin's post, this tail is unbelievably long. Great pose looking over the perch, and I would try and extend the tail if you are up to a bit of work.

    Excellent capture Satish. As Stuart mentioned, it would be a better presentation to see the whole tail. If only a little missing and you know how it looks, it is easy to fix it.

    Great effort to capture this bird full, i know the challenge to get it full only managed it once

    This one looks like the biggest of the 3 males in the area, its nearly impossible to fit it in.
    The colors are nice and the head angle is good in the image

    Hi Satish - bet you know what I am going to say! Fix that tail buddy! If you have another tip and it is at a slightly different angle try using"transform" to adjust the shape to what it should be, I reckon it's worth a try - you have a good image here.

    Satish Sir, Nice pose with good clean BG...crest color, details and exposure look great and I too will suggest to add the tail as it will make for a fantastic portrait of this beautiful bird. TFS

    I can appreciate how hard it would be to compose one of these in the frame, and it's almost perfect as is........except hehehehe.

    Very envious that we get nothing like this in Australia, just beautiful Satish

    Beautiful bird and great job capturing him. The repost looks much better with the whole tail included. Techs look good as do the details. Well done.
