Quite an artistic interpretation. Having the bird looking away is breaking a rule (and we can't have that can we! :mad: ), but the catchlight is visible in the eye and that makes it work for me. Hard to say how much feather detail there is, the crop is taking away a little I think. The background appears to have an interesting rainbow effect, did you see this in the original scene Krunal? Different and interesting composition with the reeds on both ends balancing things out nicely. :toast:

The lighting here is very interesting. You did a very nice job with it.

Interesting comp Krunal. The head turn works just fine for me given the uniqueness of the image. One suggestion - critique is difficult enough when images are posted at 720 pixels on the long side without a larger optional image but when the frame takes up this much of those 720 pixels it becomes very difficult to try to judge image quality.
