Great Indian Hornbill

Lovely colors and composition. Love the bokeh Jerry. You have mastered the technique. Now for some more outdoor nature shoots? A lot tougher than in an aviary. ^_^

Alec, LOL... Thanks for the suggestion but I'll have to wait the temperature goes up to shoot outdoors. It's way too cold here in northeastern Ohio (today's high is 30F/-1C) for outdoor activities. BTW, we might go for a field trip togather with your buddies (in Singapore) when you guys come visit Yosemite this summer. Are you still planning for this trip?

Superb DOF.

Very good study of the Hornbill, but it looks like you locked focus on the beak rather than the eye which is a shame.

 

I think this works better than your flamingo shot because, although they are both displaying natural behaviour, this makes for a more pleasant composition.

Another look of the Great Indian Hornbill. Comments and suggestions

welcome. Thanks!!

Well done. Good image and color. Regards.

Pulok, Mark and Marta for stopping by.

Hi Jerry, this zoo gallery is awesome. You sure had some quality time here. The bird park in Singapore is great too, especially with the open concept.

 

Work may postpone my trip to USA. However I may have to be in Las Vegas around August for a trade show. Maybe we can catch up by then. (",)
