Welcome on board Mrudul :) Please, do not forget to include the technical details of the image.
I like the subject a lot, the background and the soft and nice light. I wish for a better head angle and a more neat eye contact. Too bad that you clipped the tail tip and the composition would benefit a lot with more room at the bottom of the frame and less at the top. I also suggest a selective levels adjustment of the eye. Some fill flash would be great
By the way, you have a neat dust bunny in your sensor, over the head of the bird
Keep them coming
Thanks, Juan.
The bird being too close, I was not able to capture it fully. Will try to adjust the distance properly next time and will keep in mind the composition.
Welcome Mrudul! Gorgeouse bird and great BG. Agree with Juan's suggestions. I would lighten the eye and the dark plumage around the eye. Thanks for posting!
Upcoming Workshops: Bosque del Apache 2019, Ecuador 2020 (details coming soon)

Beautiful bird with a lovely pose and a killer BG. As you mentioned it would really strengthen this image if you had been able to include it all but still very pretty Mrudul and a big welcome to BPN. Will look forward to your future posts.
The Green bee-eater has a long long tail. If you include it all, then the bird becomes small in the frame and you wont see the beautiful colours.
Cheers,
