Male Asian Koel

[Surya Mohapatra]

This photograph taken at Sailashree Vihar, Bhubaneswar at Home Campus on 30-11-12, from my window.

I saw a Male and Female Koel seating on the tree. I have tried lot of clicks for clear and detail photos without disturbing them. But i can't take right shot due to opposite Sun Light and they were seating in dark shadows of branches.

This is my one of my click which I got the sweet red eye contact of him and sharing with you.

Next time I will share Female Koel and both of them.

Difficult lighting conditions. You got the eye nicely through the leaves. Is this full frame? You captured it well in the given conditions. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Mrudul Mam, This is full frame not cropped and I tried to take close up shot.

Did you use the digital zoom? That reduces the quality.
