4000th Post -Jewel of Jungle

[Harshad Barve]

Dear All
for my 4000th post I could not find any better subject than Oriental dwarf KF , I know I have posted this bird quite a time and must be tiring to see same bird quite often
I have gone through some of my earlier postings and was quite surprised to see improvement in my work. I have learned so much form BPN.

Thank you all for your support and help all the time
D300, 600/f4, ISO 200, f5.6 , 1/25 Tripod

All C & C are most welcome and much appreciated

Congratulations on the milestone, Harshad! Great image, I like the angle, look-back pose, sharpness, colors and BG. I would run NR on the BG.

Harshad:

Congrats on the milestone, lovely bird. Excellent exposure, the bill looks great. I often seem them oversaturated.

Pose is nice, perch appropriate size.

We are all learning on this adventure together!

Cheers

Absolutely stunning image, the colours are almost surreal. Congratulations on a wonderful capture.

[Danny J Brown]

Harshad - You did a great job of handling some intense color. The closest we have in Missouri is the painted bunting. I'm sure I'll see this photo published in a magazine sometime in the future if it hasn't been already. By the way, thanks for all of the great photos you have shared.

[John Ippolito]

Excellent work, Harshad. Your hard work and dedication are paying dividends.

[subramanya_ck]
