Critique Please...

This is a good jump, you got a nice pose! The bird is too large in the frame and the IQ is lacking : soft details and noisy.

It looks like he was going after someone, there is part of a wing? showing on the lower right border.

Very dynamic pose - the legs and feet positions are pretty nifty, and I like the bits of vegetation at the bottom left. I do agree with Arash's critique about the image's IQ.

Great action Anil. Would have preferred the light in front of the bird rather than on it's back. This would help with seeing more detail on the bird.

Excellent timing! I like the pose! Agree with the comments above re. IQ, light and composition!
