Hi Reddy,

A nice image. Is it cropped? It would have been ideal if there had been some space to the right for spots to walk in to. I also feel that the image needs a boost in contrast and saturation. I'm okay with the slow shutter speed since it conveys movement.

Ramesh,
What software do you use for processing your shots? Do you shoot RAW or Jpeg?

Increase in contrast would help. It is good that you didn't crop the long tail. Some more space in the direction of the movement would be good.

I would have lowered the aperture from f9 to about f5.6 to increase the shutter speed. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi
