    I agree with you all, HA should have been more towards viewer.

    Thanks for viewing ,appreciation, comments and critiques.
    Kind Regards.

    Hi Satish, Mrs Strawberry Finch looks quite cool, especially that lovely red eye, and splash of red near the tail. I like the placement in the frame, nice thin perch, and a killer BG. I agree, having a tiny look at you would have been great.

    Cool-looking bird and pose. I do wish the head turn was a bit better but this is not an issue for me at all!
    If mine, I would place the bird a bit higher in the frame as there is too much empty space there.

    I like how you agree with us even before we comment...and I agree, a better HA would have been beneficial. I do like all the other elements of the image...

    Great image, lovely background to go with the bird. HA noted as before, but not a deal breaker. I would also place the bird a bit higher in the frame.

    Satish the head angle is not a million miles out but I see what you mean, that red eye is beautiful, bird looks very good and fits well on that nice b/g .

    Thank you all for appreciation and nice words of comments.
    I will place the bird a bit above, Juan.

    Regards,

    I like the red eye, sharpness, perch and complimentary BG. HA already mentioned but this image will go well with the male you posted earlier. Nice image Satish.

    Satish that's a lovely image I like it very much , as you say a tiny turn of the head would have made a difference but everything else looks great to me.
