KD another amazing set and a teaser for my planning :-) Fantastic set man. I usually go up to ISO 6400 on my 5D MkIV and 8000 in extreme cases with the 1Dx (mkII also). Could you have gone Auto ISO with these settings and done a +1/3 to +1 EV Comp?
Thanks so much Bibek. You must have already finalized your plans for Ecuador by now
I will PM you to get more information about the setting you mentioned.

The photos are simply amazing. KD! The variety of birds, and their dazzling colors make your work very special. I tried to pick a favorite, but it was impossible. Every time I selected one and then viewed the next photo, I had a new favorite. My only comment is that you have wonderful material for a coffee table book; try to make it happen. You would bring so much joy to a wider audience.

Yes, in my head. Am taking 15 of my friends to India for a 2 week tiger session in March and that has drained all my vacation hours. Wish I had more vacation or could retire :-) Long way to that my friend.
But I am going to Ecuador before my last breath for sure :-)

Superb images and lots of them! I like the composition and processing choices you made.
Hard to pick favorites from such a collection, but the opening image is hard to top. YGMV.

Truly an apt title for Ecuador. If only I can hook up with my friend Patricio and his wife ( I jokingly call them Chimborazo and Cotopaxi ) who maintains a second home in Ecuador.
The third photo of your first post (the hummingbird) is a jewel!
