Hi Asghar, This is interesting action you captured with both birds on the prey at the same time. I think you managed to capture both birds with good eye contact which helps connect with the image. Your exposure looks pretty good to me. It appears to me that there is a bit of cyan cast which is most obvious to me in the whites of the tail of the bird on the right. Reducing the the cyan saturation might be worth a try. The setting is a little busy but in my opinion the interaction makes this worth keeping. To reduce the impact of the habitat I would darker the brush behind the birds a far bit and tone down the rocks in an effort to draw our attention even more to the birds.

NIce capture and thanks for sharing.
