    Girisholeti,

    Stunning image, this looks just a bit to bright on my monitor, could I suggest you use the selective colour sliders to darken 'neutrals" and "whites" just a little

    Beautiful portrait: sweet light, great detail, and a smooth BG. The pano crop works well. About all I would have like to see is a slightly better profile view of the head.

    Excellent image. Great looking bird, nice perch, beautiful BG. Perhaps a bit big in the frame but the comp works. I agree with Doug about HA, and I see a bit of a darkish halo around the head. I would also remove the white speck on the wing feather. Well done!

    I have done a bit of a search on the web and this is probably the best portrait of this bird ever taken! It is not too bright, HA is fine, the 'darkish halo' around the head looks like a natural oof bush to me. I agree it can be slightly smaller in the frame.
