The f8 aperture has ensured that the depth of field is adequate. The composition looks centred. Moving the camera to the right would have helped in ensuring all the feathers are in the frame. The whites in the chest portion has lost details. It is better to check the histogram and look out for blinking highlights. Once blown out, the details can never be recovered. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Nice eye contact. The spread out feathers give a different feel to the photograph. Agree with the above views. Thanks for sharing.

Agree with Sabyasachi abt the whites. Overall a good image, TFS.

A beautiful bird in breeding plumage. Would have been better to include the plumage entirely. Thanks for sharing.
