    Kaustubh:

    I like the profile you captured, with the feet together, good head position, nice color in the sky.

    I might consider some minor cropping, as there seems to my eye to be too much negative space in the right upper corner. I tried a quick crop of about 1/4 of the free space above the bird, and liked the balance better. Pretty personal thing, but give it a try.

    Cheers

    Nice silhouette. I am OK with the comp but would prefer to see a little bit less space on the right. The wingspread and fanned tailed feathers are very nice,

    Nice silhouette Kaustubh. Perfect pose for it.
    I like the space on the right, but I'd either move him up a bit or crop a little bit from the top.
    TFS.

    I love this silhouette,Kaustubh,showing the clear ID and profile of the image,as silhouettes should do.
    I agree with Randy about the tighter crop. Very well captured.

    Great silhouette and the position of the ibis is great clearly showing it's an ibis. Nice bg too.

    I like the silhouette image and the crop with the space works for me. I would maybe up the sat on the sky to make it pop more if it was mine....Nice one Kaustubh

    Nice silhouette Kaustubh. I liked the fanned out tail and wing position.
