Eurasian Golden Oriole(Male)

[Dr. Kalpamoi Kakati]

Also called xokhioti or patmadoi in Assam.However This was photographed in Gwalior.Being a shy bird this is always found in the shades surrounded by tree leaves,hence difficult to get a nicely diffused background.Colour saturation & brightness have gone down after uploading.I dont know why it is happening in this website only even with the properly sized images.However this one is little smaller than maximum recommended size for this site.

Canon 500D

Are you uploading in sRGB or Adobe RGB?

Nice head turn. The eye contact looks nice. A slight off-centred composition would enhance the image further. Thanks for sharing.
