Egyptian Vulture Potrait

[Mrudul Godbole]

Tried for a close-up photograph, since it was sitting patiently for a long time.

Canon 50D, 100-400mm L IS ISM, f5.6, ISO 200, 1/650, hand held, full frame

Comments and critiques welcome..

lovely close up and good pose... The highlights on the feathers need a bit more lowering as well as the saturation (face)... otherwise no nits. lovely ...

I love the composition and the rain drops in the background. I would prefer a crop from the bottom so that the hint of the legs are not there.

Cheers,

Cracker.
How close was this?

[Abhishek Jamalabad]

Great shot, agree that reducing the saturation would help.

Thanks all for the comments.

Anup, it was quite close at a distance of say 15-18 feet.

One of your best shots on forum.
Agree abt decreasing highlights on some parts.
