Hello Anil,
Very close. Well composed. Beautiful bird.
Very good low point of view and depth of field. These are generating the blurred background.
Have a nice day..

Hi Anil,

Good detail and composition. Good highlight or almost reflection in the eye. I just love his hair style, quite modern.

Hi Anil,
I have never seen a Spurfowl before, so I am thrilled to see one through your very well captured picture of it.
The bird looks elegant and beautiful. The focus on the eye is ideal and the colours are in tune with the original.
You live in a fauna rich state and I must come down there some day.
Regards.

Hello Anil,
A superb full frame close-up of a male Red Spurfowl taken from a great POV with fine sharpness and DOF to produce a suitable BG.
Hides are a real boon when taking shots of these shy birds.
TFS this beauty,
Best wishes,
Ivan

Anil,
These are good enough to upload to orientalbirdimages. They should be. If you need an intro to the imagemaster of that site, shoot me a PM.

Hello Anil,
Your wait in the hide was certainly worth it! It is great to see the male of the Red Spurfowl too! Excellent focus and sharp details. The colours of the plumage are lovely and its watchful pose very nice too.
Many thanks and regards, Ulla

Anil, Superb capture. Never seen them. With 600mm you do not have to get very close.

Hi Anil,
Congratulations on the prized captures of the pair from Thattekad.
Fine PoV. The proximity to the birds have given you excellent details.The brown plumage of this one leaves a silky impression.

Thanks for sharing
