I really like this.
The only thing I'd do is turn down the red a
little, it seems a little hot on my monitor.
The bright, kind of white background is a little distracting, but
sometimes you have to deal with the hand that's dealt you.

Thanks Doug, I did nothing to enhance colors..something went wrong with BG while saving for web so replaced it Does the corrected version look any better?

very nice comp Sachin, but something looks a bit wrong with the processing, unless this is a really big crop.
The focus on the head and the eye looks a bit off, not your usual IQ.

I love the image as I see it now in Pane 1. Composition and pose are superb. Same for EXP. You might wish to add some CYAN--try +50--to the REDs in Selective Color. That works usually better than lowering the RED SAT....
If you twisted my arm I would suggest a sliver off each side--maybe a touch more than a sliver in front of the bird.

As noted above, the composition is very nice. I like the diagonal of the perch and the bird's vertical position in comparison.

Lovely shot I agree about the reds and I have learned something - I would have suggested lowering the saturation but now I have read Artie's suggestion, (hope this is in the next Digital Basics update Artie!)
