Siberian Stonechat (Saxicola maurus) - non-breeding male. A local individual that I have been observing for quite some time now.
Karwar, Karnataka.
Nikon D3100, AF-S Nikkor 70-300mm ED VR (at 300mm)
SS 1/200
Av 6.3
ISO 100
Hand-held
Shot in overcast conditions. Despite the lack of direct light on the subject in such conditions, I actually enjoy shooting in diffused, low light and later working on the exposure in PP, especially for subjects like this one that have a lot of darks/blacks on them, because there is an evenness to the lighting. This was processed on an uncalibrated monitor - please let me know if anything looks wrong.
Posting after a very long time, so I have a huge backlog of images to share.
