This was at Kabini. Wish the distracting branch on the beak was not around . . . another of those low light shots . . .

The catchlight in the eye looks nice. I would have preferred more space on the right than on the left.

Hi Rajan,
Sharpness is good despite 1/100th of second and handholding. I wish the beak was not behind the branch. Moving a bit to the left would have helped get a clear beak. However, the branch would have been there close to the beak. Wish you would have got a cleaner perch.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

Hi Rajan,

Thanks for sharing, agree with the comments regarding space and the beak. Always try to work with a subject and then it will become second nature to you.
