Great look-back pose and DOF covering the bird, Ramesh. I might crop from above to remove the green line and add a little below if available. Plumage detail is lovely.

Master class applied all over, the low angle is just awesome and the clarity is amazing. You have got a gem here

[Kiran Poonacha]

Superb one Ramesh, loved the look back pose, good details and a great angle too.. congrats..

Ramesh,
Lovely image. I like the head turn and pose. The low angle adds to the intimacy. The space at the top will come in handy to place some texts on the top.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

Ramesh, amazingly sharp, and like the look back pose. Good light, and agree on being a bit tight at the bottom.

Pointing your lens a little lower and right would have been your best bet compositionally. Otherwise all else looks great. Awesome look-back pose from this raptor! You could digitally remove the small OFF element behind the tail in LLC...

[David Hemmings]

Very nice pose and details!

[Rohan Kamath]

loved the "powerful" pose and plumage details on this hulk...

[Juan Carlos Vindas]

Love the BG and head turn. Would be great to see the talons.

As usual Dan and I agree 100%; he lens needed to be pointed to the right for a better COMP. Best thing" The look back head turn. Worst thing? The incredibly distracting signature....
