Made this image at first light, last winter. These are critically endangered birds and some roost here in Southern India.

Great find and eye contact. The image looks underexposed. I only adjusted the midtone slider. Keep them coming!
Thanks Axel. This one looks a bit harsh to me. The one I posted is the kind of light I actually witnessed. I waited for the sun to move up the horizon. I know it looks a bit dark, but that was the light I saw...let me know what you think about it.
Well, I was not there but if you look at the histogram you will see that the information is far on the left side and that the blacks are blocked. It would be easier to start from the RAW file to get the exposure right.
Pramod I agree with Axel about the blacks and the midtones.
