Hi Sanjeev, good angled pose, and have exposed the blues on the Starling nicely. Great eye. I like the colour of your BG, and Im sure you had no control on where he perched. :w3

Hi Sanjeev,looking at the shadow on the perch you had some bright light to deal with which might help a bit with the sheens but of course can create other problems, so well done dealing with that, bird looks nice and sharp ,that eye is smashing.

Yes, the perch could be better, but I love the look-back head angle, and the BG colour is very nice. Harsh light made it tough to bring out more of the plumage details and iridescence (but the layering of feathers above the tail looks real good).

Agree with the previous posts.
Did you try lifting the blacks on the belly?

You did good in the harsh light, Sanjeev! Excellent pose and BG! TFS
