sharp and nice praveen.
Dont know if u could have composed without the tree in BG which case this wud been a classic.On a different note it is stupid to wish the tree behind wasnot there as the bird is sitting on its branch.No tree, no bird :D.

Agree with you Roopak, the only way was to reverse the jeep however chances of the CHE being flown away would be high and also another jeep was behind us.

What a lovely raptor!

Simplicity is very important in an image. Painters have the freedom to choose elements. Photographers don't have that luxury. So we need to move around in the field to get a simplistic composition without distracting elements. In this image, the bird and tree are competing for attention. That is why it is important to move to the right to get a clear background. Unfortunately, the drivers often don't understand this.

Cheers,
