Red Head

On sunday, had a release work in office, came to office with camera. After that release work i had plan to goto park with Raj' Family. After work i was waiting in front of the office building. I used to see this Cock during my office hours in the opposite house. This time i got my camera and i got the cock also. Wow.. Went near to that bird and started clicking.. got more exposure due to lack of sunlight. At one point of time, i called the bird like 'beh beh beh' then it started moving towards the sound direction. The light ray was coming in one direction since its 4 pm and the sun is behind the house so only one ray. So made the bird to come to that place and keep my hand in the trigger. Once it came i clicked. The lighting came well.. Didnt do any post processing except crop and the text added..

Nicely executed. You caught the light perfectly . Thanks also for the explanation - I never would have thought of clucking at hen/cock to get it's attention, but it makes sense really...

Cheers,
Martin.

Now that i see your rooster, I'm surprised we don't have more photos of roosters and chickens here. They are so colorful and expressive--usually looking wary or mad! I thoroughly enjoyed your tale of your chicken finding a "place in the sun". An idea that has special appeal to photographers. Fun!
