These snake eagles are very shy birds, rarely do we get a chance to get close to them. This was my lucky morning when this Juv let me approach a bit closer than usual.

Beautiful sharp details and fantastic looking image. I like the green BG and the perch.
Lovely image, Kiran, I like the alert pose of your subject.
Raptor master of India strikes again with big bang :D:D:D , terrific image

Just a stunning image with excellent pose, detail , lighting and a killer BG. Awesome and thanks for sharing.
These sand mounds make for really interesting perches. Sharpness, angle and BG look very good, too. The yellow in the eyes is a bit overexposed, maybe just due to jpg compression.

Super pose Kiranbhai, and I like how the tail follows the slope of the anthill. Overall sharp, and what a superb BG. Well captured.
Really nice picture !
YOur birds are always impressive, very sharp and clean BGs and this one is no exception. Green and brown make a good palette and the rock a good perch.
I like this intense pose very much!
Did you blur the BG? The feathers around the head look a bit odd in places.
Stunning image! Love the detail, light and color of the BG really sets everything off nicely!
Thank you my dearest bird loving friends for your kind words of encouragement.
@clknight: No I did not do any blurring to the BG, only did NR.
Regards,
Kiran

Another beauty Kiran, congrats
