Hi Sri,
Wonderful capture of this wild Indian Pond Heron! Though there're some leaves before the bird, the bird is still clearly presented with its bright eye and bill. The backlight is nice, sharp details, gorgeous composition, and splendid natural colors. Very well done, my friend. Thanks and have a good time!

Hello Srikumar,
What a neat looking Heron you have captured in this image. You are very fortunate to have these beautiful birds living in your back yard. I really like the way it's feathers are backlit and seem to glow a bit around the edges.
