Crested Serpent Eagle

[Sabyasachi Patra]

This is also from my archives. This Crested Serpent Eagle Spilornis cheela image is from Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve.

Canon EOS 10D, Canon EF 300mm F4 L IS USM, ISO 800, f5.6, 1/350, full frame, handheld.

The high ISO is because I had forgot to change the ISO.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

Liked the composition. Nice eye contact and perch. Thinking if a slight boost of contrast would have enhanced the image further?

Juv. CSE. nice one. I like the colour theme. I like the composition even though there is less space in the direction of the bird's view...

No nits here, Sabyasachi. The plumage seems very different from our South Indian CSEs, which seem much darker.

Overall excellent framing.
Agree about little contrast.
