Lovely perch. The background is sufficiently diffused and the image pops up. I like the composition. I haven't seen a juvenile for a long time. Wondering if there is a pink colour cast.

The adult egyptian vultures have fabulous colours. Was it early in the morning?

Cheers,

Lovely perch. Thinking if a bit more space on the top would haev enhanced the image further. Lovely colours and sharp image. Not seen a vulture still :( , hoping to see one when back in bangalore.

Sabyasachi, yes, this was on an overcast morning when the sun suddenly opened up. Not sure about the cast. I played around with the dark point and a slight shift in the colour does occur.
