It is all in the Eyes

Posted on January 6, 2011
Myna
Myna, Clicked at a Dhaba

This Myna had everything going for it, it had a funky hairstyle, a great eye makeup but had no sense of lighting. Look where it decided to pose! Went to the shades, so there are shadows in the picture. However much I pleaded, it did not yield. I still like Dhaba birds as my models, they are somewhat used to human beings.

    Nice pic… in spite of the lighting… the colour combination makes the myna’s eyes seem to stare at you!

    Thanks Chitra.

    Lakshmi I wish I would catch some of its attitude! It does look a bit different from the common one we keep seeing but not sure what exactly it is called.

    SM thank you and you are most welcome, with spelling mistakes and all.

    Thanks Doli, how it looks also seems to be in the eye of the beholder.

    Thanks Anu, but the Myna just kept hopping away, I wish it would stop and actually stare.
