Photographed at Ranthambore one evening while waiting for the tiger. The light was pretty bad.

Canon 50D, 100-400mm L IS USM, ISO 400, f6.3, 1/80, hand held, full frame.

Comments and Critiques welcome.

Nicely captured despite of bad light. The open beak add to the composition & the eye contact is great.

I like the open mouth. Is the beak a bit deformed?
The OOF branch in front is a bit distracting. Thanks for sharing.

The calling pose is nice. The eye contact is good. Wish the tree were not there in the background. The framing of the bird with the branches is nice. Wish you would have got better light and a narrow aperture to get more depth of field. Overall, looks nice.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

Nice calling pose. Agree abt the OOF branch. The beak does look deformed.

Nice one, although I might consider pulling the highlights a bit.
