Hi Girish, this has a great 3D effect with the babbler popping out the screen. Good feather detail on this fellow, inquisitive look, and those petals certainly are striking.

Drab bird in lovely Bougainvillea - works very well indeed, different!

I only wish the bright curved leaf touching the head was not there, but otherwise the image works remarkably well for such a busy setting!
