    Nice to see it holding the berry. The narrow aperture of f9 has helped to get more details. Wish the light was from your side. Nice capture. Thanks for sharing.

    Side lighting reveals the form better. However for bird photography frontal lighting helps in getting details better. Wish light had fallen on the eye. Due to prevalence of tall fruit bearing trees, you can find lot of hornbills in various zones of Corbett Tiger Reserve. Thanks for sharing.

    Cheers,

    Wonderful sighting of a Great Hornbill . Agree that catch light in one of the eyes would have greatlly enhanced the image , but circumstances on ground are always difficult .Thanks for sharing.
