What an image Raj! Barring the bright patch occupied by the bird which looks liquid rest is rendered solid by lack of motion/movement and dark thus creating a sort of binary. If I may, small suggestion, either opening up or cropping the dark woods in the background?
Thanks for sharing

Duck in the spotlight!, Raj. Looks more like a nightscape, but little hard to get convinced .. I would have preffered more hint of woods in the background, but that's just me
Regards.

thanks both. The image does look over-processed but this is 80% as shot the situation was like that. The BG can be opened up a bit rather than the dense black. When I thought about this I had felt the universe is actually inky black with only patches of light so it is more representative of "my space" in that. Let me work on making it a little less dramatic Thanks for the feedback

The treasured virtue of CNP is honest feedback...thank you
As new things happen this must not be lost

Divine celebration. Do any other species get blood pressure, diabetes etc? Probably they consume just what they need from nature for respectful life! Love the image Raj. Not sure opening the dark region on the top very gently would have added?

I read other comments later after posting mine
