Hi Mrudul,

Nicely composed image. I agree with you on the part that sparkle could not have been captured in those light conditions.

I feel that the image is a little over sharpened.

I also remember Sabyasachi's comment on one of the members photo that when shooting the bird from behind ((i.e tail is closer to camera) then a higher DOF is preferred. Maybe that is the reason the tail has not come out so clear..

TFS

PS: All my hasergatta pics have the bird so far behind and if I crop the quality comes down drastically :-(
