    Default Your image

    I went to page source and found this link:


    http://www.indianaturewatch.net/disp....php?id=185871

    That got me to the page where your image was displayed, not the image itself. I then right clicked and selected image location.

    That got me to just the image. Try entering this (the one that ends in jpg.)

    Hi Yogesh, you need to copy/paste the image's URL in the "insert image" box. To find the URL just right click on the image where it is located on the web, go to properties. You should see the details there. It's under "Address (URL), and ends with .jpg.

    Beautiful bird, perch, BG, composition. I'm sure it is an insect above the bird, but since it is hard to tell I would get rid of it as it just looks like a bad sensor dust spot. Well done, glad you decided to post and hoping to see more from you.

    Like the warm light on this bird and background. At first thought perch dull but then noticed fine grooves catching light.
    Probably best to get rid of dark spot even if an insect.
    Love to see more of these birds I will never see and great post.
    A little more story on these unfamiliar birds would be interesting.

    Lovely first post, Yogesh.
    Excellent pose and bg. Nice comp, although I could see the bird shifted slightly to the right. Very nice light as well.
    Well done. Glad you decided to post and looking forward to many more.

    Default Thanks

    Hi All,

    Thank you for pointing out my mistake. I will be able to post as suggested by you.
    Thanks a lot for the comments and suggestions. It is a insect above the bird and agree on cloning it out. Currently I don't have the PS installed, will try to do that.

    @Charles McRae: This bird is called ashy prinia or earlier it is called ashy wren warbler from the warbler family. There are different types of prinia's. Ashy Prinia, Plain Prinia(will post) and Jungle Prinia(haven't got this beauty yet) etc. These are very cute and insectivorous birds normally found in Indian Subcontinent.

    I have taken this photo in local garden in Pune City, Maharashtra State, India.
