like the BG, unfortunately the bird is angled a bit away from you....perhaps pigeons are not the most photogenic or sought after birds, but it's good practice for flight shots.

Thank you Arash. I agree

That is a sweet background for sure. While they may not be high on people's list of birds to photograph, they are none the less beautiful. Agree that it would be better if the bird was not angled away from you. Bird seems to have a bit of a blue cast to it as well. I would clone out the gray line (side walk?).

Yes, agree about flight angle. Less than ideal.
Personally, I don't have an issue with pigeons. Great for practice and they are still birds.
-
Great background. Wish the bird was turned more towards you. Sharpening looks good to me. Nice detail as well.
-
Details look OK on my monitor Krishna, agree with the comments already posted. Thank you for sharing.

These guys make for wicked head-and-shoulder tight portraits with their subtle iridescent colours and way cool red eyes. Just a thought for your next visit there. Sharpening looks fine. Cool BG, but I agree about the bird angling away being unfortunate.

Keep em coming Krishna! head angle off as you know but i like the action. I would suggest a tighter crop, TFS...
-
As others have said - the turned away angle kind of undoes so much of what's good here - but if you get one fully parallel - who cares if it's a pigeon - I'd love it!

I will be heading out again and this time I will try to get my 500 with TC To get some portraits.
Thank you

I did reduce the blue color cast. Interesting thing to note was that when I opened this image on web and saw this on my work station in office, it seemed very blueish. It was uncalibrated monitor in my case.
I will check the image again.
Thank you.

Hi Krishna, nothing wrong with photographing pigeons, they are small, so great practise to get your eye in, and some are very attractive. Sweet BG, and another vote for not achieving the best HA.

I have lots of images of pigeons and as the other suggested they are great practice.
Nice colors and details on this 1. Keep up the good work.
