    Well placed in the frame Satish, and a bit of gradation in the background which I always prefer tom plain. Good detail in the black areas

    It's a nice pose Satis, but the details look a little soft. Also, do you have maybe the next frame without part of the membrane covering some if the eye?

    I'm with John on the background, it's a nice graduation

    Beautiful pose Satish. I like the lighting and your control of the blacks and whites. Looks good against the BG.

    Beautiful bird, lovely pose for the theme. The membrane covering part of the eye could be fixed in Photoshop. Thank you for sharing, Satish.
