Requesting suggestions for a desktop PC. Tried lots of different ones...so many are geared for the gamer and not so much towards the photographer. Appreciate your feedback.

Thanks

A small and shy resident goose of the Indian subcontinent, found throughout the year in freshwater lakes and ponds. They are social birds and always seen in groups of 4 to 6 or more.

The birds are visibly smaller than the other ducks such as Whistling teals and the Spot Billed Ducks found in our region. I love to shoot them in flight, but they fly fast and are quite wary of humans.

Shot them near a lake full of Jacana's and Coots. These goose stayed for a while and then flew away far from human activity..

Many thanks for all your views, likes and feedback. Much appreciated.

A very common bird that forages in the cities, countryside and in the wooded areas. Unlike the Common Crow, this one is far less predatory, but is quite an aggressive bird.

They are always seen in flocks, playing, foraging together and even chasing away crows etc.. together. This bird was my target list for a flight shot and I think I can strike that off my list now.

Thank you so much in advance for your views, feedback and faves.

And he was successful. Seconds later, he caught a Zitting Cisticola for a meal. This is a migratory raptor from Central Asia that come in large numbers during winters to India. They can be commonly seen across the countryside and mostly in grasslands where they roost communally.

We sighted one on this fence preening and he spent around 5 minutes cleaning himself up. Then suddenly he dived flew behind the vehicle and landed in a far away field. He had a Zitting Cisticola, a small warbler in his claws which he finished pretty quickly.

Thanks so much in advance for your views, faves and feedback.

thanks you so much for stopping by. Any kind of feedback is welcome. have a great day :)

A fight was brewing between the Rose Ringed Parakeets and the Spotted Owlets. The coconut trees in the area were dry and many of them were hollow with several hollows in them. One or two of those trees broke midway (during a storm probably) and had openings on the top which the Owls preferred to make nests.

Both of them fought and for the first time I saw a Parakeet attack an Owlet surprising me completely. But then the Owlets were juveniles and the mother kept the parakeets at bay. But soon the Mother went away to collect food and one of the Owlets followed it soon. After a while, the area become quiet after the Owlets snugged into the hollow.

These are resident waders about 15-18 cm tall and found across South Asia and South East Asia near the edges of water bodies throughout the year. These are social birds and often found in a flock of 100 and more. They prefer wet slippery mud near water bodies to rest and flock together. Sometimes we see them on the banks of lakes, but this time we spotted maybe 100 of them in a half submerged field.

The birds were nesting on the banks of River Godavari - one of the largest rivers of South India. The 1 km+ wide river has narrowed down to less than 100 meters in the summer, and the banks are wide open with no activity. In here, these pratincoles, River Terns, Blue Tailed Bee Eaters and maybe River lapwings were all nesting.

Thank you so much in advance for your views and feedback. Much appreciated.

A resident starling and a winter visitor to our region. These birds share the same habitat as other starlings and are similar in behaviour to the Brahminy starling or Rosy Starling. They are found often on the Acacia bushes on the roadsides or trees in flocks near water bodies. I think this one is an immature one based on the colors which are still too pale and have a silky smooth appearance.

The birds are local migrants - I am not sure where they migrate from to our region yet though. Just like Rosy Starlings, they are seen together in pretty large groups of 20-30 and more. I sighted a large flock on a lake bank and the light was just fantastic. They were foraging on the road side bushes and were unmindful of our presence. I had a great time shooting thee beautiful starlings.

Thank you so much in advance for all your views, feedback and faves. Much appreciated.

Did you know that Parakeets, Owls, Myna's etc.. all share the same kind of home? They nest / roost in holes / hollow of tree trunks that are often created by other birds like Woodpeckers. On this day, we found several coconut trees with such holes in them. And a large flock of Rose Ringed Parakeets was active with some of them in these holes - while others were on the branches nearby.

The spotted owlet had occupied one of those hollows in the tree and the Parakeets clearly didn't like that. So they were continuously making calls and one of them even landed on the hollow to scare the owlet away. The owlet came out and landed on this perch very close - this was around 3 PM. It was sleepy, yawning and had droopy eyes. We felt sorry for it, but didn't disturb the fight and watched from a distance.

Thanks in advance for your views and feedback. Much appreciated.

A migratory raptor from Central Asia, Eastern Europe that winters in India. They are quite similar to the Pallid Harriers and both these birds are often seen together and even hunt in the same habitat - grasslands. The prey base is also quite similar.

There was peak of Harrier activity around last November and a grassland had around 20+ harriers. The birds would hunt till 5 Am and once the sunlight starts to reduce, they would sit on the ground like this one and wait for the darkness. Then the birds come together within 50 feet of each other. We found groups 7+ several times mostly comprised of Montagu's, Pied and Pallid. Early morning though, they fly away 30 mins before sunrise making it hard to get them in good light!

Thanks in advance for your views and feedback - much appreciated.

A uncommon maybe rare babbler in our home state, but common in Rajasthan which we visited in Dec 2024. This babbler is something I wanted to spend time with and I had that wish fulfilled in that trip. The habitat is grasslands and dry scrublands. They forage in the bush and ground hopping from bush to bush in small groups.

We sighted almost 200 -300 + birds in our trip much to my delight. The call is a sweet bell like sound unlike some of the other babblers whose call is coarse. The birds were competitively foraging and were quite playful chasing each other or trying on top of each other. As we got closer slowly, they disappeared into a large bush on the roadside and hid there as we started photographing - had to wait for a while for them to come out again. And I am so happy with the results.

Thank you so much in advance for your views, feedback and faves.

Another species of the pipit and one that is widespread in the Central and Western Parts of India. They are a tad larger than the 3-4 species we get here in my state.

This is a bird of open habitat and generally prefers rocky hillsides, desert regions / areas with some scrub or woodland. While the longer beak is a pointer to the id, getting pipits id right is a big challenge since the differences are quite subtle. I took several shots of the bird and could id only in the computer after downloading.

In the desert, these were very common and we found these and Tawny pipit in good numbers. Surprisingly, this bird had several sightings in my home state down South last year far away from its range.

Many thanks in advance for your views and feedback. Much appreciated.

On Saturdays I like to go for a meditation session at Hakone Gardens, a Japanese garden in Saratoga, California. This time I walked up to the bamboo garden and found these bamboo leaves, which I captured with a 50mm f/0.95 vintage Canon lens called the Dream Lens. The DoF at minimum distance is only about 2cm (a little bit less than an inch.)

I processed a balanced and a vibrant HDR photo from a RAW exposure, merged them selectively, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate your critical feedback.

Thanks for visiting your feedback is appreciated. Have a wonderful week!

I feel like this is one of my better shots especially with HDR.

Any feedback on how to improve the HDR aspect would be really appreciated.

Rincón, Puerto Rico. Thanks for looking and any comments or feedback.

Rincón, Puerto Rico. Endemic to the island and known locally as Reinita Mariposera, or "Butteryfly- hunting warbler," this warbler is usually first identified by its sweet, bubbly trill-like song. That is what led me to this one. Thanks for looking and any comments or feedback.

Another one from my favourite places, Rotary Park in Ajax. Taken with my B+W 10 stop filter.

I'm considering upgrading to a LEE Filter system to avoid having to screw on and off the filter. I'd love to hear some feedback on the LEE system or any other for that matter.

Thanks for visiting!

Based on feedback received from this original upload: www.flickr.com/photos/79387036@N07/51250487934, I've provide this (what I consider a significant improvement).

If you can switch back and forth between these two images, you can better see what I mean. The smoke aloft is more apparent in this revision.

On Saturdays I like to go for a meditation session at the Upper House at Hakone Gardens, a Japanese garden in Saratoga, California. After our last session of the year we cleaned the house - floor, walls, windows, now shiny as new.

It's good to let go of the old year and start fresh. My e-mail inbox is by no mean clean, but the mind, surroundings and camera gear certainly are.

I processed a balanced and a paintery HDR photo from a RAW exposure, merged them selectively, and carefully adjusted the curves and color balance. I welcome and appreciate your critical feedback.

Thank you for your kind comments it's so encouraging to get some nice feedback !

I am fairly new to photography and I have always really struggled to get the exposures right, as I always over expose the sky.

With all of the pictures I took that evening, I used a 10 stop filter with a ND 8 hard grad to balance out the sky. It was such a beautiful evening, I was very lucky I think.......
