The behaviour displayed is nice. You have used ISO 800, was there any particular reason? I think a lower ISO would have sufficed in this case. The light is a bit harsh. Thanks for sharing.

Sandesh,
What has ISO to do with overexposure?

ISO denotes the sensitivity to light (basically the amplification of the signal in digital cameras). ISO 800 is double as sensitive as ISO 400. In this case, if you would have changed the ISO to 400 from 800, then the shutter speed would have dropped to 1/2500. Unless you are clicking flight shots, such a higher shutter speed is not required.

You can check the histogram of your image and if there are any blinking highlights, then you can reduce the exposure by dialling a negative exposure compensation.

Cheers,
