    This is beautiful.
    Love your low POV and the beautiful, soft color palette.
    The OOF grasses at the bottom of the frame add an ethereal quality.
    Well done!

    Krishna:

    Nice pov, and of course the ethereal aspect from the diffuse OOF areas along the bottom. Wish the legs weren't involved in the haze, but truly a minor point.

    Cheers

    Great shot of this photogenic bird. Nice low POV. I might have been tempted (unwisely, perhaps) to add a touch of contrast in a few spots, but that would probably rob the image of it's lovely soft quality. A fine frame.
