The acrobat | Malabar giant squirrel

[Bhargava Srivari]

Kabini is a jungle where action is never far away. Even though the cats don't make an appearance as often as they do in the summer months, the monsoons are still my favorite season in Kabini. This is because anything you shoot a midst greens looks beautiful and Kabini has diverse wildlife that always keeps you busy. The Malabar Giant Squirrel is among the largest in the squirrel family and provides with ample opportunities for enjoyable photographic experience

Nice pose and good eye contact. The long tail looks good. The tree bark on the left frames the vertical composition nicely. Is this full frame? Was any sharpening done? Thanks for sharing.

Nice image. Colours look natural. More than half of its overall length is the bushy tail, very clear in the image. Thanks for sharing.SaktiWild

Thanks guys.

Mrudul, this image is about a 15% crop, and some sharpening was done.
