Lovely

You seem to have taken much care to get the antennas in focus and succeeded.
I think it would have been just great to get all the wings in the same level of sharpness…
Well done.

Stunning.

You have done very well Pinaki and I can see why it's one of your favourites.

With the settings you used you were of course limited with your DoF but have chosen your focus point well giving at least one antenna end and one wing end in focus and it also appears the eye (which is of most importance) is sharp although small in this view. And the lighting is good.

The only way you could achieve a greater DoF here, although it is certainly not necessary, is to close down at it's cost of speed or ISO or to have moved further back and crop in post, losing IQ.

Do we like it, yes.

Thank you friends for your appreciation.Grahame , i agree with you already i used an aperture f/5 and mind it my camera was a bridge camera so there was no room for further increase of f-stop as it would increase background distraction.

Nicely captured, very energetic presentation.
