Very nicely done Atul. Only wish you had a slightly higher shutter speed. The wing spread and composition look lovely. Nice eye contact. I would reduce the colour temperature a bit.

Nice pose. The beauty of the photograph, to me, is that the faintly streaked breast so well documented. This is a photograph, if seen by a Five Year old child ,be remembered for whole of the life. It appears to me it is just after landing.Correct me if I am wrong .Thanks for sharing.SaktiWild

Thanks a lot guys for the comments. Abhishek, if I had increased the ISO to 400, would have got higher shutter speed and a sharper image. You are spot on Shakti, it was just after landing. I was waiting for this moment to press the shutter.

I like the pose you captured. Which focus point were you using? Could you check on canon zoombrowser where the focus got locked?

Bhargava, this image is out of focus, was trying to lock the center focus point on its eyes. Just missed it, a bit of error in the judgement. Was satisfied that I got the pose but was even more disappointed not to get it in focus.
