    Harshadbhai, good double, and both looking the same way. Good choice of comp, and I like the clear BG.

    India are having holiday in the West Indies. Easy games.

    Excellent job in getting both birds in awesome pose. Lovely composition too. I think the bird at the bottom can use some more sharpening.

    Really like this, love the pose of the top Silverbill with the nice light. Looks like he is waiting for a belly rub.

    Sweet birds nicely juxtaposed. Had they each turned towards you a bit (rather than away) this would have been much stronger. Losing the grass coming out of the lower bird's bill would work for me.
