Anup,
Where was it photographed? I like the eye contact. You can increase the sharpening. A small portion of the white patch on the throat has lost details. Similarly, the white area of the brightly lit branch has also lost details. You can recover that during processing.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

good image and composition. Agree about increasing the sharpening. The bright bamboo branch is a bit distracting...

Good shot and compo. Agree with the points mentioned earlier... I also find the back of the bird a bit overexposed.

Good composition. I liked the ruffled feathers. Nice eye contact. The details on the beak are good. Agree with the earlier comments.

Keep posting..

Thanks for the comments folks.

I shot this one at Uran.

I'm not that a good hand at processing, so tend to mess up the details.

Can anybody pls outline basic steps of processing?

Thanks
