    Hi Sanjeev.

    Nice capture of a bird I had never seen before. The composition, color and sharpness are great. The stride and feet are fascinating, and the bird really stands out against the gray bkg. One minor suggestion would be to clone out a couple of bright spots below the bird.

    Nice pose showing the impressive size feet. Nice low angle and good composition.

    Really neat profile walking pose. Good colours. There is a dark "smudge" touching the subject's back that I would blend or clone away to make for a cleaner finish. Nicely done.

    Thanks Dan. That's probably an OOF leaf in the distant BG touching the back. I could clone it out. Thanks for the suggestions folks.
