Short-toed Snake-Eagle Preening

This was made in the evening light. Light angle was a bit odd but there was no space to place my vehicle properly.

Fantastic IQ from you once again. Smooth multicolored BG appeals to me and the expo is spot on. I love the termitary for a perch, maybe a touch off the left...Fantastic image

That is one gorgeous image. I love the pose, the cool perch and your light here as well as the detail right to the beak and feather contact, Sweet image IMO.:cheers:

Girish. Very sweet. Your processing to even out the light is superb, as is the bird. Here I would crop a bit off the bottom for compositional balance. Though I love 3X2 you cannot apply it by rote to every image. Remember, those rules are just meant to guide us.
