    Rakesh:

    Like the alert pose, sharpness and agree with Arash about the stick, its removal helps clean up the image.

    To my eyes the image could go a bit brighter.

    Is flash allowed at this location? Just a hint of fill would have helped the bird pop and stand out even more from the background.

    Cheers

    That's quite a bird, and nicely captured. Great pose and BG. Repost is a vast improvement.

    Ram - a beautiful bird very nicely portrayed. I might work on the lower tail section that was partially cut off by the perch removal.

    Excellent specie, like the repost.
    Would move him further up in the frame just a bit.
    Hope to see this and the flamboyant male of this specie in the wild some day.

    The repost works very well and shows off this gorgeous bird much better b/c you don't have the distraction of the branch. Lovely background too.

    Just love this Pose and the BG is soo pleasing Ram. Reost is brilliant. I like the way you have managed to get this fellow in the open. As Rakesh pointed out a little brightness may be. But Still a beautiful image.

    repost is an improvement but i would suggest you try this and check as i find the levels have still room to play.

    Red : 0, 1.00, 230
    Green : 0, 1.00, 220
    Blue : 0, 1.00, 221

    you may sure love to know that you can recover the blown beak from raw and remove blue cast over to beak.
