Really cool species Sudipta. Nice and sharp too. I am seeing a light halo cast around the bird and perch,perhaps from trying to pull more details from the subject. If the bird and perch were isolated in processing and the adjustments were made only to the subject this shouldn't occur.

Thanks for looking,

Thanks Mikullashbee for your comment. But I am not finding any halo in my monitor. In pp I have done very little cloning of disturbing leaf. Then adjust the shadow / highlights a bit to clear an amount of shadow from black body. Apply sharpness on Bird & flower only.

Overall a lovely frame. There is a bit of a halo visible around the head and going down the back side. I would pull back on
the sharpening just a bit and compare to this shot.

Beautiful image, but I agree with the slight halo
