    I agree with your selfcritic Kaustubh and I think that a bit more room at the right would enhace the composition a lot. Perhaps some croping at the bottom and a contrast boosting would work on this one.
    I like the mood of the scene a lot and the simetry in both birds with a neat eye contact :)

    Hi Kaustaubh, Two good head angles and nice bright eyes. If you have CS4 this would be a good candidate for Content-Aware Scaling as it might do a nice job of moving the birds closer. Thanks for sharing.

    I am back. I had a few more minutes so I gave the Content Aware Scale a try. This took me about three minutes. I will leave it up to you if it works but sure was easy.

    I believe your right about the head:eek:. Perhaps I should have taken four minutes:D. I have only used this tool a couple of times and am still learning. I am sure someone with a bit more experience could do a better job of it.
