What a bird! Colored with every color. I have a bird book of India that our good friend, now in Iran, sent me. I shall look it up. No worry about saturated over. Perfect.

That’s a red one just has to see. I enjoy the silhouette effect. Down pat for a top draw.

Super work in describing via net sourcing in both languages. Have a cup of red on me!

Very nice Luciano. I have always been impressed by your work. Do you frame in the viewfinder or do cropping or blowups?

Perfectly approached and composed - excellent image, Ram.
Identification „Vanessa cardui“ might be clearly considered to be changed into „Vanessa indica“, the closely related but less widely distributed species from the Indian mountains.

Remarkably fine result achieved with well upgraded old equipment, Ram.
Clear details, cheerfully rich natural colours, skilfully well composed.
Thank you, with best regards,
Peter

Exzellent portrait of the red-vented bulbul, Ram. Charming pose presented in excellent details and lovely natural colours. Your equipment is doing a very fine job in your hands.
With thanks and best regards,

Right kind of exposure, Luciano.
The details on the open wings are sharp and crisp.

Very beautiful composition, Silvio.

Ridiculous size imitation on TN deprives viewers of the pleasure of watching a high res picture, Biswarup.

This is a very uncommon species which you have captured well.
Excellent portrait!

Wonderful macro, Laurens!
Details are perfect.

Lovely pair, Biswarup!
Perfect capture.

ramthakur (56953) [2019-07-19 21:10]
Though a good capture, please locate it in Uttarakhand and not West Bengal.

Dear Ram,

well composed, well approached capture of this cute and very agile butterfly of the mountains.

Regarding the identification: instead of the similar looking but more brightly colored common and wide spread Aglais urticae, I might suggest to consider the Himalayan species "Aglais caschmirensis (Kollar, 1848)".

Thank you! With best whishes and greetings from the Alps to the Himalayas !

Hello Ram,
nicely dynamical presentation of this attractive butterfly, well managed to show both sides of wings.
Thank you! With best greetings from the Austrian Alps to the Himalayas of Himachal Pradesh!
Peter

P.S.: Thank you for your visit and very kind words to my latest posting a few weeks ago.
Having been away from my computers recently during an extended trip into the mountains.
Always a pleasure to see fresh contributions from you here at TN!
