    Welcome to BPN Wolly! I like the inclusion of habitat. Sharpness and exposure look good. It'd be nice if the eye had been more open. I'd be tempted to clone out the green grass, as it's somewhat distracting. And I'd probably add a little canvas on both the left and right (more on the left). Thanks for posting!

    Welcome, Wolly. Excellent first post. I love the colours and textures. Agree with Doug re the green grass. Looking forward to more.
    Posting tech info is useful to maximise feedback.

    Welcome to BPN, Wolly! I deleted the second image because only one image per post makes it possible to create a thumbnail.

    Great find, soft light and details. I might crop a bit off the top and clone out the blade of grass in the lower left. Please post the techs. Keep them coming!

    Guys - Hi,
    Many thanks for your valuable comments. I appreciate it very much. I believe everyone is aware that its a nesting season right now. There are couple of nightjar species here within this opened grassland were laying eggs. Some eggs have been hatched and I have seen numbers of its chicks here and there. It's very cute and I'm peresonally find that birding or birds photography is fun. I may need more tips and guide from you guys to improve my skill especially your C & C. I will post out more pictures to share with all of you out there in future. Warmest regards. Wolly J
