    Thanks Gary. I shot this at Masai Mara, Kenya. Drop me a PM if you need any help while visiting India. Will be happy to help.

    Well photographed ! Great bird and background. I would like to see him higher in the frame as all that room up top isn't serving much purpose, in my opinion.

    Sanjeev, I have been using 5D III for some time and somewhere in these logs it was suggested that you may need 1 -to 2 Ev underexposure to saturate MK iii photos just a hint, I think even Artie noted it.

    Beautiful bird on a nice perch. I think I'd tone down the BG and bring a little more sharpening or contrast to the bird. Just did a quick run through with Viveza

    Lyle, your RP has taken my image up a notch. I agree on the bit more contrast and sharpening. I have Viveza, but never experimented with it. Will give it a shot now. Thanks a lot.
