Few attempts from my side. I am new to photography. so expecting ur comments.

Hi Arun,

If these were taken by you. None will tell you are new to Photography. Why don't you label the photos with places specially the lighting and the photos which have the water in the foreground.

Many thanks mates for the appreciation! I am happy that you liked the processing...I have processed them with my limited knowledge in PS, and I think you can also do it using your imagination once you learn some basic editing steps in it.

@Redrage
Nothing short of brilliant!

@arun
Try to not cutoff the feet of birds in your frame, yet sharp shots.

@clevermax
Nice color processing there!
