Ray of hope

We hiked up the hill to get the better images of the flight of the vultures. Meanwhile, the sun was scorching at us. As I was resting on one of the rocks, I saw the light piercing through a shaft and fell only on these three blades of grass. Under exposed by more than couple of stops to get a darker background against these beautifully lit up grass blades. It gives me an impression that it carries a "Ray of hope" message for the critically endangered species - the long billed vultures or the Indian vultures as they are called to increase in their numbers.

Note: If monitor is well calibrated, you should be able to see the traces of light on the rocks in the background.
