    Hi Sanjeev, well exposed on both the blacks and whites, and the KF stands out nicely against the smooth BG. Great that it decided to perch on the raised rock. Comp wise, I would take a bit off the top and bottom.

    Nice pose, perch, and BG with excellent exposure and detail.

    I would tone down the sharpening a bit on the rock.

    This is lovely Sanjeev.
    Terrific light and IQ.
    I would crop some off the bottom to get rid of the OOF foreground.

    Wow! The thumbnail dose not do this one justice. The exposure and detail are killer and I like the smooth clean BG. I agree with Gail on removing some from the bottom. One of your best frames Sanjeev!!

    Wonderful! Good ideas above. How do these guys balance -- they look so top heavy.
