Green Bee Eater shot in Diu. The perch is manmade and so is the background (a wall), yet i thought it gave a nice contrast to its colours.


Canon 450D, 420mm
SS 1/250 (+0.3 EC)
f/8
ISO 400

A sliver of white of the wall cropped from the right. Comments and critiques welcome

Nice image. I like how the colors in the image compliment each other. What bulding does that wall belong to? I remember seeing such colored walls only in hospitals (at least in this part of the country) :D

Bee eaters are mostly seen perching on electric wires these days.Effect of expanding urbanization :) Nice eye contact & colours.What was the background? TFS

Dear Bhargava and Kalpa,
The background is a wall next to the place where we were staying in Diu. I don't think it was a hospital :)

I love the way the pink compliments the greens. A very nicely visualized shot Bibhav. Good eye contact as well, all in all a very pleasant and colorful shot.
