Nice Amrita, You should probably try to use a little faster shutter speed to compensate for the camera shake next time. If it's underexposed you can always bump up the ISO

Raj thanks for the feedback... I will try faster shutter speed for sure. I tried with higher lSO but i felt the shades were not properly emphasized. Please correct me if i m wrong intl the approach

You're most welcome.. That can be corrected in post using editing softwares. ISO performance depends a lot on the camera, could you tell me what camera you use, and what was the shutter speed and ISO for this one?

Ok, you see the problem with this one is that you're going as low as 1/15 with the shutter speed handheld, resulting in this blurry picture. For a shot like these it's advisable to have at least a 1/100th of a second of shutter speed to get decent pictures, the higher the better (mostly).

In this case, judging by the lights, I would have kept the ISO to somewhere between 400-600 ISO which shouldn'tbe any problem for the D3100 of yours, and would allow you to go to higher shutter speeds and will fetch sharper images. The end exposure would be identical, just the picture would be much sharper.

Thanks for such detailed information . As for the blurry part, are you speaking of the magnified image or is it just the general sharpness in the picture of the bird which could be obtained

Both, the sharpness would increase manifold and so you'd get a much less blurred image on zooming in too. Assuming that there is ample light, the usual rule is to keep the shutter speed as at least (1/focal length), i.e. lets say you shot this at 250mm, then you need at least 1/250th of a second worth of shutter speed.
