The graceful dance of Judy

[Prajwal J Ullal]

ID: Plum Judy

Spotted this hyperactivity beauty near the Sati Baug area while I tried to capture an opened up Grass Demon. It just kept on doing its very graceful moves, almost like a wild dance and occasionally kept flipping from one leaf to another. The area was very dimly lit due to the heavy shades of shrubs and trees, so couldnt capture the video of the dance

Nice image. Was a slight lower angle possible? Thanks for sharing.

A little bit more contrast would be better. There is a shadow due to the flash and also the highlights often get very bright due to the flash. A lower angle would have helped avoid the bright portions of the leaf in the background. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,

Could have been possible, but would have to lye down onto the road to get that shot, was well crouched to get this shot, may be my laziness kept me from going lower
