The fields were full of these larks. Walking through you would notice them as they took off from nearly under your feet.I had ample opportunity photographing them.

Bonjour,
Sympathique duo bien camouflé, comme le titre l'indique.
Bonne journée.

Great work, Badruddin.
The isolation of these two birds is very effective through a good depth of field range.
Further on I like the purple flowers gradually disappearing and changing into blurred purple spots as if the latter were painted by some skilled impressionist.
Well done and thanks for sharing...

I can see were it would be tough to shoot these birds as they mimic their surroundings so nicely. Well taken shot.

Hello Badruddin,
You have a lynx's eye to have been able to see those little ones. I think that they are so cute and I also think that it is the first time I see this specie. This is a very nice capture with good composition, POV and lighting. We can see this little light in their eye which is beautiful. Those purple little flowers add a nice element to the picture too. Well seen and well done :)

Hi Badruddin.
What a perfect selection of the DOF and nice illustration of its applying. I like your picture, its clear colours, razor sharpness of the birds and perfect exposure. You have composed and cropped your picture skillfully. TFS and my best wishes.
Alexei.
