    Nice detail and separation from the background - that orange eye is great! Perhaps you could have a little more space behind the tail. A delightful image!

    Thanks for sharing,

    This is great Ram, but does need a little more behind. Exceptional and unusual colors

    Ram, if you post a bigger size, it will have more impact (you'll get more comments also). excellent walking pose and BG separation. tough bird to nail. this one is nice and parallel. sharpness looks good. agree with tad more space behind. I might be tempted to take a tiny bit off the top.

    I like the sharpness, eye and BG. Agree with more room behind. Well done!
