Its amazing how sure footed these fellows are. I love their eyes. Nice image. The top right corner is bright. A slight crop from the top and right would strengthen the image. Some space at the bottom would have been great. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Lovely behaviour photograph. I liked the composition. The eye contact and the colours are nice. A higher aperture would have enhanced the image further in case if the shutter speed was higher, but this looks good. Thanks for sharing.

lovely capture Mohan. Innocent yet strong animal :).

I like the composition. The wet feel of the image gives a glimpse of its habitat up in the Nilgiris. A narrower aperture would have been nice here. :)
