    Nikon D500, 500F4 G ED VR, 1.4XTCIII; Exposure Time—1/1600 seconds, F – 6.3, ISO—400;


    I appreciate all the critiques. THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR VIEWING & INPUTS.

    Love the colors, the highlights, the sharp edges and the hint of eyes and feathers. TFS

    Wow, this is wonderful Somdeb. The lighting, specular highlights, and splash are wonderful. Slightly white face is a nice touch too. Really excellent!

    Another beauty. Colors and the highlights are gorgeous. The bits of detail work very well. Only thing that would have improved this was if the bird was facing us or at least parallel to the back of the camera.

    I rarely like silhouettes with some detail but this one works perfectly for me. My favorite part of the images are the droplets against the black body ...

    Nice one. Like the color of that background. The composition is spot on. Like the specular highlights as well.

    Thanks a ton for your inputs.
    I was much concerned about these kinds of shots and their PP. Happy to post on BPN and getting the feedbacks.
    BPN is all about learning and its fun.
    Thanks again.
    with warm regards,
    Somdeb
