Nice sharp details and colours Sanjeev, also a good head angle and background.

Hi Sanjeev. Very nice head angle, sharpness, colors, comp, and background. The side lighting helps to bring out feather detail. I see that the eye is half covered by the nictitating membrane - I'm wondering if you have similar images of this same bird in which the eye is clear?

[Sanjeev Aurangabadkar]

Thanks Nick and Steve. I do have another image of the stork with the eye not covered by the nictitating membrane, will share in my next post :-)

Great close up shot.
Terrific comp, great head angle, excellent details, and nice background.
Well done.
