    Lovely shot, I hesitate to say anything negative but the wing tips in the left wing - is that purely movement or is there some smearing around the edges??

    This takes my breath away, it's so beautiful! Awesome job on all counts, but for that cloning. Fix that up and you'll have an absolute winner.

    WOW! Fix the area around the wing and this is awesome! Did you clip the wingtips and add canvas? Would love to see original and your PP work,

    Superb image Ramesh!! Even that the bird flying away does not bother me at all here!! Great colours, sharpness, BG. Good eye Jonathan in pointing out the wingtip issue...
