Hi Krishna, <LOL>
I try not to play God too often with my photos. Adding birds, rays of sunlight, fog and mist is something I'll let nature do - it does a much better job at such things than Photoshop. Of course you've criticized the photo, and that was clearly your intention, otherwise you'd have not made the comments you did. However, I don't see such criticism as a negative or a bad thing. You've put forth some ideas on how you think the photo could be improved. Nothing wrong with that, and there's no need to apologize for putting forth your opinions.
