Indian Robin

[Murugan Anantharaman]

After a long time got a chance to visit the fields in the outskirts of Mumbai. Since winter hasnt set in as yet, didnt have too many options as far as birds were concerned. Saw this robin playing around and was quite close too. Cropped image.

The shape of the basket looks nice. Shutter speed seems to be pretty low. Looks like a large crop. Slightly less space at the bottom and also at the top can strengthened the composition. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Nice shot Murugan.

As Sabyasachi Ji has rightly pointed out, the SS was too low.

At a Focal length of 300 mm (handheld), a shutter speed of 1/500 might be ideal for getting tack sharp pictures.

TFS.

Nice image. Nice clean background and good eye contact. Increasing the ISO and using a wider aperture would have helped. Thanks for sharing.
