    Beautiful frame Ram, cloning out the OOF twigs in the bottom will make it more beautiful

    Ram, good leaning pose, well exposed on the darker plumage on his head, and sharp where it counts. There was no need to inform us that the BG is natural, it is clear for all to see. However, I would have maybe removed the two OOF twigs below the perch.

    Ram,
    Agree with Sapta and Stu on cloning oof twigs.

    I would want one more thing if you look the upper edge of entire perch it shows hairy black line you could have removed that easily.

    I Like the way you recovered the Harsh Light on perch on entire top part.

    As for composition the bird is in center and adding bit canvas on left would give it more room where its looking..

    I love the image and I love the OOF twigs below the perch. They are soft enough to be not at all distracting and for me they add depth to the image. Great bird. Killer pose and HA. SH and EXP right on with nice detail in the BLACKs. AIA a truly excellent image.
