One of our most common forest raptors. Found this juvenile perched on a dry bamboo pole
during a boat ride in the backwaters of Kabini river in the Nagarahole Tiger Reserve, Karnataka, India.
Made with a Canon 450D + Sigma 150-500. Handheld from a drifting boat.
Exif : F6.3 / ISO 200 / SS 1/200 @ 500mm. Shot vertical / Aperture Priority / Eval
Crop / Levels / Curves / USM / NR on BG. Cloned out half a twig which was running across the tail.
Comments & critiques most welcome.
Nice exposure for whites and unusual looking raptor
Well they may be common to you, but not to us here in the US. What a great looking bird. Nice pose and BG, although the BG needs a bit of NR. I would move the bird more to the bottom right of the frame.
Cool bird, nice pose, and techs look great!
Agree about moving bird to the right in the frame.
Stunning looking bird Girish, the techs look very good all round, such a great eye and love the crest....love the talons and especially the one lifted one
Very nice shot.
Great pose and I like the view of crest feathers.
Nice background and great perch.
Well done.
