    Nice imageas is, Sanjeev. However, I would clone out the OOF branch running parallel to the perch if it were mine. Also, I would tone down the bright green leaf.

    Sanjeev,

    Ditto Karl's comment. Clone out the branch under the perch and I may even remove the leaf altogether. Add a little bit of room to the bottom and take some off the left and you've got yourself a stunner!

    Karl and Miguel covered the negatives. The bird looks good, sharp and I like his red eye.

    Hi Sanjeev, well exposed on the Drongo, and love the tucked in wings and forked tail. Looks like you were battling for light, so wishing for more DOF wasnt going to happen. I agree as above with regards to removing the distracting parts.

    Hi Sanjeev, For the aperture and speed used you have got the bird in good focus. I might separately try sharpening the tail a bit. I do agree in taking the OOF branch and leaf out. It is a dark bird you have done well to make the details visible.
