Good to know that you have got a prize. It seems you have uploaded an image larger than 600 kb. Your image seems to be automatically crunched by the forum software to 913x550 pixels and 403 kb. What was the original image size that you uploaded? May be you can try reuploading a lower size image.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

Congratulations..!! Rare sighting. Liked the composition. Thanks for sharing.

[Debasis Bose]

Thank you Mrudul.

Dear Sabyasachi, you have caught the root cause. Microsoft Photo gallery is unable to resize the images below 450 KB. Hence the details are lost.

[Sabyasachi Patra]

I have increased the image limits and upto 600kb images can be uploaded. Hope it helps.

Thank You Sabyasachi. I have some wonderful experiences this time, will share one by one
