p.1 #1Stork and Sun
A singular evening in Calapur, a village just outside Panjim, Goa: molten sky, descending disc, and a stork balanced on a dead coconut trunk, nearly in line with the falling sun.

Well it's a pleasure to see you here Rajan
An interesting 'countdown' image of a sunset!

Nice handling of the exposure and processing, keen eye to put it all together. So now you are a birder

Take care

Jung, Morris, Karl: Thank you, gentlemen.

Karl - much appreciated for admitting me into the 'birder' club. My capability in bird photography is non-existent to very minimal. Therefore, I shall for now remain an honorary member (free coffee and cookies).

Fantastic captures Rajan. #2 is my pick, the coconut trees on the side add a lot of context to the image.
