Looks great with the pose and especially the fanned tail.
I'd leave more room though, feels rather cramped in the frame.

The bird and the BG look superb ,do agree with the above comment re more space.

Ákos; Keith; Thanks for the C&C! I've added more canvas as you suggested.

Fantastic Shot, Love the pose, the tail, tucked in feet, LOVE the head angle and the illumination on the head... The BG ...like it all

[Grace Scalzo]

"Graceful" is the word that came to mind when I viewed this sweet image. Lovely curves and lines, colors, and yes indeed, the repost rocks.

[Raybel Robles]

Beautiful image! Love the BG and I too like a lot more the repost with more room.

[Joseph Przybyla]

A beauty, love the fanned tail. The added canvas in the RP is a improvement.

[Stu Bowie]

Excellent wing display, not to mention the lovely detail from the fanned tail. Whites are well exposed, and the open beak adds to the image. Nice colourful BG too.

[Jim Crosswell]

Great image! I like the fanned tail, IQ, open beak, exposure and BG. Repost is an improvement.

[Frank Schauf]

Great light and flight pose.

[Daniel Cadieux]

Very appealing!! Great light, BG, pose, lines. Well done Binu, and yes, the repost is better....

[Juan Carlos Vindas]

Very beautiful indeed
I would give even more room all around the bird. Love the open beak, light is fantastic and the fanned tail is quite nice too. Very cool image.

[Binu John]

Thanks everyone for all the C&C!
