I was in a Safari Jeep, and could not get a better angle on these cute little fellows. Wish I could just get out of the vehicle and shoot! Used the roof rail for support.

Sanjeev,

What a great opportunity but you did your best and the shot you captured is still a nice image. In cases like this, the pictures are more a statement of fact or evidence rather than an artist controlled composition. I still might crop from the top, small slice from the bottom and evict the branches in the BLHC and focus the eye on the pair - thanks for sharing.
