    Hi Abhishek,

    I would suggest a crop so the bulbul is not centred in the frame. Still further I feel it needs a bit of brightness / opening up of the blacks.

    Apana,
    Increasing brightness, i observed, makes the throat look overexposed. So i increased contrast instead. Also cropped it. Tell me if it's better. Can't help a slight decrease in sharpness, tried everything in photoshop. Thanks for the tips.

    Do you have the RAW file? And what is the original file size? You could try using the Shadow-Highlight tool to just open the shadows.

    Hi Apana,

    He has taken photo with Canon SX10 IS, which doesn't support RAW.
    Though he may share original JPEG file.

    Hi Abhishek,

    It is available on the later versions, from CS3 if I am not mistaken. It is available through Image > Adjustments > Shadow Highlight. I don't have PS on this system but I generally hit Alt + I + A + W.
