now I know how much exposed u want
Infact, you have over exposed by 1/3 stop, but I don't know why I think it's little under exposed.
You have cropped a lot, advantage of having lot of pixels. If the bird is up close, you would have gotten "the fur" details you want. I am expecting a nice and good bird photograph before you go back to work.

actually it was dull cloudy day and to get exposure right I required to increase the exposure a bit...I do it regularly
crop a lot but that is to be done...I was 15-20 feet away and with my 500mm I could get only this result ...its almost not possible to go nearer
today I shot in my home garden and I know they are better will post at night

Here are two birding shots I quickly snapped in the morning

Thanks.Gen nice pic ...Christmas tree is beautiful
I dont know if I will be able to shoot anything today
May be something for new year ..
Nice bird pic, esp the first. You should try some selective noise reduction (see the grey part) & selective sharpening (eyes & beak).
The fireworks & water pics are great.

ritwick I dont think there is anything particularly bad in any of ur pic technically ...maybe some are bit unnaturally bluish
I will say you should work on improving the composition...its more needed...
if tripod is not possible then solution is keep it on a rock and use wired or wireless trigger

Democracy is a myth
But, the blue is natural. This is how I got the pics. I just enhanced contrast and clarity in Photoshop.
Hmmm. Composition is natural. Either you have it or you don't. I try to observe photographs of other persons (specially newspapers) and try to imitate it.
I need to buy a trigger I guess. Don't have one yet.
The clouds are not edited. Its HDR, taken three shots and then used "Creative" settings in "Photomatix"
Even you can do that.

@sujoy: the two cat pics are amazing, very well composed, very nicely lit. Do you own both a dog and a cat?
@rhitwhick : brilliant HDR shots, love the amazing clouds and the clarity of the people (usually they get blurred when you shoot HDRs)
@gen: i think your pics belong in the photo projects thread too

@rhitwick if blue is natural maybe I didnt like the composition I am saying just work upon composition and ur shots will look amazing
@izzikio thanks...I used to own a lots of cats...but after my dog came the cat world gradually decreased..no no my dog didnt killed them but chased them away ..and now only have 2 cats comming and going

Rhitwick,
Just these two things would help little to make images a little better. I hope you don't mind.

Shutter speed (0.4 sec) - It's pretty obvious this will result it motion blur if we take this handheld. Try as sujoy suggested. You can use self timer untill you buy remote trigger.
Aperture (f/5.6) - I think (vaguely remember) people use f/11 (around this no.) for landscape. You figure out what's working for you. I think f/5.6 is too large for landscape. In general people keep something in foreground to make the image look interesting. The tricky thing is focus, you have to keep the foreground subject to infinity in focus. For that you have to hyperfocal distance, dof and all. In this case, waves are blurred coz of DOF or because of both dof and long exposure.
WB - May be you chose an inappropriate WB or AWB, it's too bluish. If you were right and still it's too bluish, you have to warm it up a little bit.
Sujoy, Cute birds and nicely exposed Just a little warmer would be good, I think.
