    Wonderful image, Sasan. Great looking bird. Like the detail and how well you handled the harsh light. A bit of a suggestion would be to tone down the vertical dry grasses just to the right of the bird. Beautiful as posted.

    Truly a lovely portrait. Terrific color palette. The perch is perfect for the size of your bird.

    Hi Sasan, excellent detail, and overall nice and sharp. I do like the attentive pose, and pops nicely from your OOF BG. Well captured.

    Fantastic perch for this individual. The subject looks pretty darn good too! Well balanced composition, and what a great BG you have here... I would only tone down or blend in the whitish streak in it as it tends to pull the eye there. Is the eye normally a bit more vivid in this species?

    Beautiful perch and lovely bird with a great BG.
    Wish for a better HA, but I still like this.
