Not sure if you like the BG. This is the best plumaged have I have made pictures of till date and wanted to share it with you.

a proud pose with beautiful eye contact,details..soft light!!!

no problem with the bg!

[Mital Patel]

man not necessary every bird needs clean bg. not possible if you are in wild and in natural habitat so dont worry. this is sure a killer and gr8 plumage display.

saying this cuz i know my all frames are not having that clean bg always....:)

[Trivedi Ashvin]

Excellent image! Liked the proud pose a lot! The eye contact is too good here. I feel that you have got very nice BG & Shows the habitat very well!

[Arthur Morris]

I like it. Esp. that proud pose. It could use a bit more room all around. The pupil of the near-eye could use some Eye Doctor work.

Kiran Bhai, your killing me with all your wonderful raptor images.;) I don't mind the BG, the bird pops nicely against it. Love the stare and the warm colors of the plumage. Another winner from you.

[Axel Hildebrandt]

I like the stare, attentive pose, sharpness and setting and would give it a bit more room. I might desaturate the yellows a few points.

[Raymond Barlow]

wonderful capture Bhai, the bird is exceptional.. maybe a little more room above the head.

Kiran, A very nice capture. I like the pose and stare very much. Beautiful sharpness and a pleasing BG. Agree a bit more room. Very well done once again!!

[Nate Chappell]

I love the head on pose here Kiran, a tough bird to get close to, agreed on a little more room.
