Nice sharp close-up.It seems the bird had posed for you!I think some cropping has taken place.Good pciture really

[Abhishek Jamalabad]

Nice eye contact. Nice perch. If this is a substantial crop, you need not have cropped so much, more space around would have looked good.

I agree with the previous comments. I like the eye contact. The sharpness is fine. A bit of brightness would strengthen the image. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

Sharath, This has gone one-up than your previous photograph.

Nice image, increase in brightness will be good

[Mrudul Godbole]

Nice potrait. The clean backround and the eye contact enhances the image. Agree about some more space all around and a bit more brightness. Was this photographed at Hasserghatta?

[Sharath S Giri]

Thank You for your C&C's.yeah this is a cropped image!!yes Mrudul your right...the next time i will see to it that cropping is done correctly!!!

[Bibhav Behera]

The image looks nice. A bit more brightness would have been better. Has the eye been sharpened separately?

[Sharath S Giri]

No Bibhav!!!!over all sharpening is done ...

[Bibhav Behera]

Thanks Sharath for the clarification :)

[Sharath S Giri]

Any time bro!!!
