    Default Black Kite

    I photographed this near Bangalore at the same place as the Egyptian Vultures. The light was quite bad and it was about to rain. Saw lot of these kites perched on the fencing.

    Canon 50D, 100-400mm L IS USM, ISO 200, f5.6, 1/800, full frame

    Comments and critiques welcome..

    this is absolutely beautiful. Lovely details... the background is also diffused decently... The cloud pattern makes the head stand out. TFS

    Great shot, nice and sharp with a nice clear BG. The kite stands out well. There is a pinkish spot in the BG near the bottom, cloning that may improve the image further.

    Perhaps a bit more space at the bottom would have enhanced it? (I don't mean to say there is anything wrong with this frame, I'm saying this frankly because my eyes immediately went down to see whether the full tail is included.)

    Thanks all for the comments.

    Abhishek, I too tried my best to include the tail fully. Maybe a bit zoom-out would have helped for some more space at the bottom.

    Nice image. Background nicely diffused. This has come out well. It is good that the tail is not cut.

    Cheers,

    The EXIF data says +1/3 EV. Else, in this situation, with so much of sky the meter is bound to give an underexposed reading.
