    Great detail on the vulture and I like the walking pose. I wish to see the other foot. I will inform someone on the title error

    Excellent low angle image. Nice layered feathers and super sharpness.

    Love this! Excellent details on the face and head feathers. Great job on the whites. I'd be OK with a bit more room above.

    P.S. Fixed the title for you...

    Girish, this has to be the most beautiful looking vulture I have ever seen. Excellent exposure, good light, and good sharpness. I keep being amazed how well you put this sigma lens to work. Well done. Loi

    Hi Girish,
    This is lovely,
    Great details in the whites and love the yellow face slightly turned towards us.He is so clean!
    I see a slight magenta cast in the BG and might reduce the magenta in the BG by a point or two.
