The image seems to have lost quality, perhaps due to a big crop. You can correct the horizon tilt. Thanks for sharing.

Nice sighting. Its quite difficult to photograph a mongoose, since it runs away. Its good you got it in the open. The eye contact is nice. Agree about the quality and tilt.

Thanks for sharing.

Am yet to come across a strikingly sharp picture of striped necked mongoose. The animal is so elusive that it seldom pose for a photograph.

This one is a good attempt.

This is a quick mammal to shoot. Praveen, you did well to capture it. Image tilt makes it little difficult... for me. TFS.

These fellows are not easy to shoot. It needs good depth of field as well as shutter speed to create a pleasing photo. I agree about the tilt. It is better to increase the ISO to get a higher shutter speed. Wish you had got in better light.

Cheers,
