Lovely portrait, Goutham. I think you could have increased the iso for a higher Tv. Wondering whether you could open up the shadows near the beak.
Alexandrine or rose ringed?

[AB Apana]

Rose-ringes, most definitely. Alexandrine lacks black eye-stripe and has a red shoulder patch.

The image has a nice, intimate, feel to it.

Beautiful close-up. Lovely colours. Sharp. The leaf in its beak adds to the composition. Would have loved a bit less space at the top.

[Bibhav Behera]

Nice close up... Agree abt the space on top...

[Sabyasachi Patra]

Lovely colours. Better to have the full branch rather than cut it. So agree with the composition. Nice image.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

I thought the shoulder patch, if present, would be out of the frame here. :)
Thanks for the info about the collar, Apana
