A crested raptor, likely a Changeable Hawk-Eagle (*Nisaetus cirrhatus*), is captured in a medium close-up, oriented to the viewer's right. The bird displays light brown to tan plumage on its head and ventral side, contrasting with darker brown feathers visible on its dorsal side. A prominent crest of several slender, dark feathers projects upward from its crown. It possesses dark eyes and a robust, dark, hooked beak. The raptor appears to be perched on an indeterminate, dimly lit, rough ground surface in the foreground. The background features a dark body of water under a dark blue twilight or nighttime sky. A horizontal line of multiple blurred, circular artificial lights is visible across the water, suggesting a distant coastline or maritime activity. Vague, out-of-focus shapes consistent with outdoor chairs are present on both sides of the bird in the midground. The scene is located in Vĩnh Lương, Vietnam.
