    I like the way the perch curves and the spider's web adds a lot to the image. Sharpness and BG are quite good. I wish the bird's head were turned slightly towards you.

    Looks good Bhai, the BG, the pose and details work well, the Cob web adds well too, just wished for a better HA and would personally prefer a tighter crop.. still liked this, congrats..

    It works really nice for me Mital. Love the perch, subtle details of the spider web and the nice light. I would crop a bit from the right and top of the frame, just a litle bit, to improve the composition.

    Mital,
    A simple and nice composition. Agree about the head turn. I like the cobwebs.

    Cheers,

    I like it very much. Well exposed, the spider web is a nice touch and the BG is marvelous. Little extra head turn would have been nice indeed. I would crop it a bit tighter. Congratulations, Mital.

    I like the perch, light, BG and the spider web adds to it. I might sharpen the bird a bit less, there is a slight sharpening halo around the beak and legs.

    This is very nice Mital. Crisp and clean. Halo's easy fix and like Juan's crop suggestion which I feel can take this up another level.

    Wonderful BG, I like the webs and perch.
    I would go for a tighter crop, on my monitor it seem a little oversharpen.
