    Kostas, when you click on the thumbnail it opens a questionable website. I downloaded your image and posted it here. Maybe you should try a different hosting service.

    I like the topside view and BG and wish we could see the eye a bit more. The whites look a bit overexposed on my monitor. Keep them coming!

    Need info,,e.g: camera type, lens type, focal length, aperture, shutter speed, ISO, metering mode & pattern.

    Check the histogram, is it clipped on the right hand side?

    Hi - A big warm welcome to the BPN Family --- When posting your image do include full shooting info (as mentioned above) It does help us see what you are doing and thus help you improve.

    Ok- as you will have noticed the comments are mentioning blown whites and over exposure. Are you familiar with how to interpret the histogram?? I would also Turn on your Overexposure blinkies (this will make any over exposed areas flash - when viewed on the LCD screen on the camera) if you are not sure how to do this - let me know the model of the camera and I will advise.

    I would seriously consider getting Arties book - The Art of Bird Photography II - Available here - the best money you will ever spend part from BPN membership :)

    Canon EOS 50D
    Aperture = ƒ/5.6
    ISO Speed Ratings = 400
    Focal Length = 100 mm
    Exposure Bias (EV) = 0
    Metering Mode = pattern / multi-segment

    If you are using Firefox you can get the EXIF Viewer add-on and all you have to do is right click and if they did not use save for web all the EXIF data will open in a window.

    It is a very useful tool.

    Hi - the white balance is not the problem, I am guessing you are using the camera on the P setting - Heres what is happening when you are doing that - A camera only knows how to do one thing and that is make evrything a middle tone or middle reflectance, so here its see's all that dark blue in the background and goes Gosh this is really dark I need to make it brighter - which it does, however this results in your whites being over exposed (No Detail).

    You need to learn how to use the camera in A mode and use exposure compensation to control the whites.

    I would turn on your over exposure blinkies so that you can see when you have problems. Have a look in the educational resources forum - lots of good reading in there.
