[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Friends,

Want to share this picture shot this week-end at Hesarghatta lake near Bangalore. This is the picture of a Pipit pruning itself on a Sunday morning.

TrekNature had become one of my most visited web-sites ever since I joined the family of photographers from around the world.

Considering what is happening in TN in recent times, I have decided to turn off my points. I will also henceforth not offer any points. I feel that this will help me focus on appreciating others photographers better as well as appreciate the critiques from all of you.

I follow the footsteps of some of my friends and take a forced vacation from TN till end of August. This will help me focus on my skills and get back with more vigor and focus.

Thank you all until I meet.

Regards,
Murali Santhanam

Hi Murali,

I liked the picture the way it is presented, though I felt the ant hill height could have been reduced little bit for better composition, but then...you have your right to present they way you want. I am sure during your vacation from TN you would have good collection to show when you are back. See you back soon till then Happy clicking!!. TFS

Dear Murali, You should finish the double century mark and then take some time off !

Cute little bird, unique perch and nice background. TFS. with best regards.vab.
