Excellent image Mital! I like the pose, details and complimentary BG. I don't like the end of the perch. Here is a quick alternative with perch extension and added canvas up top so the Kingfisher has more room to look into, maybe a bit too square.

Great shot. I really like the detail and the light on the blue feathers. I might have tried a bit of fill flash to try to grab detail on the bottom of the beak.

Mital, superb BG. terrific details in the KF. A tad head turn would have been nice for the light to hit the face.
