Excellant details of the bird and the trunk. sharply focussed eye. Also DOF is proportionate to smear off the back ground!

EXCELENT SHOT. LITTLE CROPPING IN POST PROCESSING WOULD HAVE GIVEN MORE DETAIL.

Radz, Interesting picture of this one-legged bandit. Only the eye-blind is missing. Excellent exposure balance retaining details in the shadow and at the same time prevent burn-out of the high key background.

Hello Rathika,
Thanks for looking at my picture of an Oriental White-eye.
I think I was lucky to have these birds visiting me.
BTW, how do you go to Sultanpur bird sanctuary from Delhi? I wish to go there one of these days. Just waiting to get my driver's licence.

Your picture of Shikra from the rear gives a perfect view of its plumage and also of its hooked beak.
Your infrequent posts are always a pleasure to look at.
Regards,
Ram

Hi Rathika

Excellent light light in this one - those legs are glowing! Very good exposure as well, in what must have been tricky light, with the foreground much brighter than the subject. Very well done!
