The composition is nice. There is noise in the background and the quality has fallen due to the crop. The catchlight is nice. Thanks for sharing.

I like the eye contact. You seem to have used a colour temp. or around 6500-7500k during post processing. Lowering that would look more natural. Also, reducing the saturation a bit would strengthen the image. You may try showing more habitat to create an environmental portrait. Environmental portraits when done well has more impact. However, it is difficult to master as well. The plus point is you won't need to crop and lose quality. Thanks for sharing. Look forward to more.

Cheers,

Hi Praveen,

You got it nicely. Liked the eye contact. Some more space all around would have been good. I had photographed it last time I had been to Haserghatta, so processing the backlog now :). Will post yesterday's images soon.

Hi Praveen,

Spotting this eagle the other day was really the highlight of the trip ..you have captured it quite well despite the lighting conditions at that point of time.

Please upload the other shots too
