I love nature images that include the natural habit, it helps the viewer to get a feel for the different environments where the various species live. This is a particularly beautiful composition with a lovely depth and perspective, and a really nice balance between the different elements surrounding the star of the show! A beautiful image Debapratim!

I agree with what has been said about the lovely habitat you included in this image. In addition, it is a top-notch image of the elusive Trogon! Congrats.

Beautiful environmental image and the subject looks fantastic and not covered by any branches or leaves, which for a nonsetup shot, is a big bonus.
Very nice

You have proved once again - Ghosts can be shot :) . Really a crazy success. Brilliant habitat depiction too which proves its near invisible existence. Hats off for the tremendous effort you have to take for a single shot.
