Rahul,
Nice scene. Were you on foot? I would have preferred the black buck a bit to the left. It would have been interesting if you could have moved further to your right and shot through the vegetation. I would have tried to sit down on the ground and get a eye level perspective.

Was this taken with your max zoom? Would like to see an image with a wider lens.

Why did you choose f4 aperture? A narrow aperture would have given you more depth of field.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

The black buck is interested in something. I don't mind the lack of eye contact.

Sabyasachi,

Actually when the herd of blackbuck crossing the dirt road at distance i was in car and quickly come out and click some images. They were very quick so i get hardly few seconds to have these images.

Yes, this show was taken with max zoom, and i crop the image as usual . I herewith attach complete image without editing.

In 2007 my photography skills were very poor and even today too. I just click without worried about technical things. I'm still learning the art of photography

This female Blackbuck was desperately interested in Male Blackbuck, so she didn't even look at me, i guess

Dear Ma'am,

Yes, she is really looking graceful with her shiny coat. She was trying to impress someone

I hardly get the time to capture this beauty, so can't manage to think for good composition. Thank you so much for your lovely words again...ma'am

best wishes,

Rahul
