Fantastic image, Debapratim. The detail is so good the bird looks alive on my display. And the color and markings are just superb. The technicals appear near perfect. Congratulations on this very fine photograph.

Beautiful portrait. Wish it were mine.

Incredibly sharp, if I had the original I'm pretty sure I could zoom in to see you and the shooting location in the eye reflection.

Would you mind mentioning the software used? Mostly I'm curious if this is just PS or some other processor plus did you use any of the new AI software?

Thanks.

Richard
