Almost full frame image and in low light condition, shutter was very slow. I seen the bird when I was returning home from birding and found it beside the road and very close with the natural bg. Hope u like it...

Anit, Beautiful. Nice natural perch. With such low light, could you have increased the ISO a bit?

I didn't try ..actually a busy road there in the Sanctuary and the drivers use loud horn there, so when I found it so closely with the bg I shoot the bird with previous setting...

Anit, Wow, sort of like combat photography.  Sounds like it might be fun.

Hi Anit
Very nice pose of this handsome owl and you got him with an attractive BG too. I would reduce the green cast in the image

Thanking you for your valuable advise bt I have seen many times in my two screen..none of them gave me bad impression about the green cast...is it distracting???
