Fantastic capture......

Lovely shot of a very cute and agile bird. It is difficult to frame such small birds.

Maybe the crop has resulted in loss of focus on the tail. A higher Shutter speed would have enhanced the picture. The background, while lending an artistic pattern, does distract the details from the bird.

Loved the composition, a typical Prinia pose and a patented tail lift of the Prinia and Robin family.

thanks for sharing

Hi Yogesh,

Welcome to IndiaWilds..!!

Cute bird. Nice eye contact. Agree with Rajan's comment. A proportionate crop with more space on the right (rectangular framing) would have enhanced the image further. Thanks for sharing.

:)The Plumage details have been nicely captured.I feel that some details of environment included in a wider composition could have added to the image.TFS

Nice cute bird. The eye contact is nice. This looks a tight fit. More space all around would have helped us in connecting with its environment/world. Since this is a cropped, you can post the wider image.

Environmental compositions tell us about the link between the subject and its habitat and is more important. When you pick up a super telephoto lens, by default you will get closeups. So this is the time - when you are using a smaller zoom lens - to explore environmental compositions.
