Nice details and smooth BG. Looks like a well used rock. I'd place the bird a bit higher in the frame. The wayward feather is a bit distracting.

Well exposed, with good detail in the whites. And a gorgeous background. My personal preference would be to move him slightly to the left, with just a little off the top.

Excellent image, Girish.
Wonderful colors with superb details, lights, perch and backdrop.

IQ looks great, good techs and processing. Not my favorite head angle from this type of species, but it does have a curious quirky big-eyed look to it.

Hi Girish, good eye contact, and you achieved good DOF on the tern. Whites look good, and I like the hint of the wind swept feathers. Killer BG. I would maybe take some off the top.

Nice looking shot with a unique HA. Exposure and details look great and I like the BG. Well done
