Lovely postcard image. Nice that you got it with a catch. Good perch, details and composition. Just a little bit less space on the left would have enhanced the image further. Thanks for sharing.

Agree with Mrudul on the space to the left. The image also looks a bit soft and maybe one round of sharpening will enhance the image a great deal.

Here is the same with the changes . . . . .

Harsha,
Did you upload an image larger than 300kb or longest side longer than 1024pixels? In such situations the forum software automatically resizes the images and the quality is lost.

It is always nice to see an image of the bee eater with a catch. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi
