Interesting perspective on this bird Jagdeep. Very sharp on the head. I too might try the comp without the green on the left.

Great bird, very sharp and that tree cavity is really cool, what a find. You may want to consider slicing off that green area on the left hand side to simplify the image.

Since many of you wanted to see the post without the light area on LHS, here's the repost.
Thank you so much for your suggestions, much appreciated!

Jagdeep,

One of the most colorful birds I have ever seen. Do you mind if I ask where you took the shot? It is really an amazing picture.

Hi Rick !
This was shot in Keoladeo National Park, Bharatpur, India and it is from my first shoot in 2011.

Jagdeep,

I prefer the repost, without that slice of green all of the attention is on the bird, lovely color combination, eye contact and detail.
