Nice action captured atul...... liked that innocent look and the catch light on the eyes ... tFS
The water splash looks nice. Good eye contact. Moving a bit more to the right would have got it more parallel to the sensor. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Sucheth and Mrudul. Moving to the right was not possible as I was already on the edge of the river.
Nice to see it taking bath. I like the water droplets flying. Tough lighting conditions - the shadows have lost details. I am missing the red eye here. Thanks for sharing.
