    That is one beautiful bird that has been beautifully photographed. Excellent work Pinaki.

    You may want to clone out the white parts along the side and top of the left top edge. Toning it down should also work.

    Nice image, background colors and forms blend in very well with the main subject.

    Clear, detailed and sharp, but as has been said, needs to be toned done just slightly. Great photo

    I wonder about a slight crop to reduce the amount of distracting background on the left.

    Probably mean doing a square image though; unless you can get away with a 4 x 5 ratio.

    Simply beautiful - I too think it would be improved a hair by having more space in the direction the subject is facing that behind it.

    A slightly tighter crop on the LHS would work for me as well Pinaki. I think it would better position the bird in the frame and eliminate the distraction of the white bits. It's a very nice image of the bird though.

    A beautiful bird. Nice colors and detail. I agree with others' recommendation on a different crop eliminating the bright stuff in upper left and providing more room in front than behind the bird. Also a bit of cloning to eliminate or minimize the bit of branch or whatever is poking out of the bird's breast.
