    Great habitat image! I like the feather detail and sharpness in this one.

    Kaustubh, Very nice inclusion of habitat. I might fade out the piece of grass that is under it's beak if it were mine. Very nice details and pose. The eye is fantastic. The image has a lot of dimension to it.

    Sharp. Nice soft light and colors. Good suggestion by Denise. Did you already lose that reed above the beak??? Reeds are nice except for the bright yellow one below the tail; it might work to tone that one down. All in all, very nicely done.

    Artie, thx. No I have not lost the reed above the bill. I will work on toning down that one below the tail.

    Good stuff Kaustubh. I wonder how this would look like with a touch more contrast, but it certainly works well as is too.
