Hi Govind,
This is a Changeable Hawk Eagle... I love the eyes. They stand out inspite of the image being a bit under exposed. The V of the branches frames the bird well... Try increasing the exposure a bit more... but that will bring in noise... better to get it right in the field

beautiful image... though i do wish the beak were a bit more clear and pronounced....
good pic nevertheless.... keep posting

Nice composition. Liked the perch and the eye contact. Seems the light was bad. By studying the graph when you click, you can know if the image is getting underexposed and increase the exposure accordingly.

I agree that this image looks a bit dark. Increasing the brightness a bit will help. Please check the repost. The right hand portion was not adding much to the image. So I cropped it. The idea of cropping and posting is primarily to show alternate composition ideas that may be tried in the field.

The quality drops when working in a small sized jpeg. It will be better when you work on the original raw. Look forward to more.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi
