Nilgiri Tahrs are normally found in South India.

I really do like the peaceful expression and colours of

this animal, but I’m confused by the light green areas

of sky.

Can you let me know what may have caused that.

Thanks…Dale. Confused

Dale,

Thanks for your comment.Appreciated!!

This shot was taken on a misty day and just opposite of this tahr there is a hill and covered by thick fog.

and this could be the reason the light green appeared on edit.

see the original version. May be you could do some kind of editing to this shot.

Thank you for the second post – it is now so obvious that the green

areas are actually caused by the foliage on a hillside.

Not sky at all – thanks for clearing that up!

Great cropping and post processing from the original.

Dale.

jaydev…

In Lightroom, HSL – hue, move the Aqua slider to +100 and the Blue slider to -20.

I like post processed image a lot. I almost looks unreal like painting or cartoon. I like the angle – that head is profile. A little plant fits in composition as well. I have to agree that removing green from the “Sky” might be a good idea, because it confuses the viewer. Without seeing the whole picture you would think it is green sky, not the mountains.
