Abhishek,

Bee eaters are colourful and always a treat to watch.

I would be good if you can place the bee eater more to the right, and leave more space infront of the subject.

A head turn slightly towards you would enhance the eye contact. EXIF details would help in commenting better. Were you handholding? A bit of more sharpness would have helped.

Yes, I was haldholding that too at the full zoom extent (optical). Maybe thats why it lacks the sharpness. Thanks a lot for the helpful info.

Hi Abhishek,

I liked the composition.The branch giving a interesting look.I agree with Sabyasachi about a bit more space infront of the bird.The background is nicely blurred.

Do post the Exif details.

Keep posting...

Abhishek,
You can check the Photography tips section for a tutorial on sharpness. It might be of help.
Cheers,

Hey, i was browsing through my photos, and found that the original of this bee eater is much sharper. Let me know if i should try to post it with minimum compressing, resizing.
