    Welcome to BPN Behzad! I'm not sure we've got any Iranian members as of yet. You've photographed a beautiful bird very well. Sharpness is good (maybe a little oversharpened). Pose is nice. Like the soft BG (background). I would probably add a little on the right of the frame and crop some off the left and bottom. I would also lighten the dark stuff in the LLC (left lower corner). Again, glad to have you as part of the BPN community!

    I like it but agree that there is much too much dead space. I love the sharpness of the bird and the great light. And oh yes, welcome.
