Nice to see that you could manage to click these otters getting out of water. Wish they were facing you, would have enhanced the image. The rocks/pebbles are classics of ramganga river. Thanks for sharing.

Nice sighting. I agree with Murugan that if the otters were facing you then the image would have become much better. Ofcourse that is not in our control. For how long did you sight it? Which area?

Which camera, lens? What are the exif details? Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Nice sighting of Common Otters on Ramganga river bed.Moving out of water they usually proceed in a line and make head-turn.Possibly they had to pay more attention towards negotiating large pebbles.Nice feeling.Thanks for sharing.SaktiWild

Nice environment composition. Quite rare to sight so many otters. Do post the EXIF details. How long was the sighting? Did they cross and went back into water? Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Murugan.
Truely speaking I was looking for larger wildlife at the far end of Ramganga, then our driver spotted these otters & I got a lucky shot.

Sabyasachi ,
This sighting was for around 1 minute only & then they again entered in the water. I think I should have waited for them for better shot.
Camera was Sony HX100V , no idea about lens or EXIF details. I am sorry , but not knowing photography.
Thanks.

They were luckily spotted by our driver. It was P & S Sony camera (HX100V) & I zoomed around 25X. The sighting was for around 1 minute. They were moving from one stream to another probable in search of fishes. This photo is from in between two streams. They entered the other stream on far side & not came back for 3-4 minutes. We left towards Dhikala in search of larger wildlife (read tigers & elephants). I think should have waited for more time for a better shot.

Thanks.
