Lovely image Mrudul, good to see the bee eater in action. The details, colors, eye contact and bg have come out well. The OOF twig on the left can be cropped or a vertical comp may even look better.

Nicely composed. The black stripe is well-exposed. Brighter light would have made for a better catchlight in the eye. Nice to see it with a catch. Agree about the OOF branch on the left. Do you have verticals?

Nice you got it with a catch.Like the compo and details .Agree on the oof stick at the left.

Good catch. I agree that cropping slightly from the left to remove the hint of the out of focus twig would have been even better.

Lovely image Mrudul. Agree with the comments made. Loved the catch. Were you able to find out the ID of the catch when you zoomed in?

Praveen, I too wanted to crop it, but with a proportional crop, the space at the bottom was getting reduced so thought of minimising it as much as possible. I didn't try a vertical as I was waiting for it to take off so I could get a flight image.
Thanks all for the comments.
Agree with Praveen. You got the bird nice and sharp. The colors look good. Where was this shot?
By the way, is it not okay to crop slightly unproportionally in cases where you have to sacrifice the composition?

Nice sharp image.Images look much better with this lens ,when clicked by you :).I agree that it is always good to go for a proportionate crop.Thanks for sharing.
