vikram bhai,

this is beautiful. loved the wing stretched in air.

Nice pose. I like the environmental feel to this image but might crop a bit more top and right to give the bird a better impact.

Vikram, Hi from another Pune-ite.

very nice, this one. Without raised wings it would not have worked at all. great timing and very good comp. If mine, I'd reduce the contrast a tad.

Its a fine shot and I think the previous two comments would really make it sing.

@ Gail thanks for the comment and suggestion
@ Kaustubh, Namaskar, Thanks for the suggestion. Pl check the image with changed contrast.
@ Observed some noise in BG after crop so done some NR with blur tool in Ps.
Your comments please.

Vikram, the re post looks really nice...the open wings did the trick for this shot else you would have required to crop this one even further as the bird would have looked very small in frame.
