Jagdeep: wow what's not to like about a fabulous shot of a tiger and its reflection. The only thing that could have made it just a tiny bit better was if the tiger was looking at you. Great nonetheless and congrats. Richard

Hi Jagdeep,

Excellent as presented. Love how all the colours work together and I really like the overall exposure (and exposure balance) - the dark(er) water contains many beautiful golden hues. While I respect and appreciate Richard's view re: where the tiger is looking, I personally like the fact that the tiger is focused on something other than you (i.e., not looking at you). My only "in a perfect world" wishes would be for a slightly lower angle and perhaps a very slight repositioning of the tiger towards the right side of the frame (just a tweak on that).

Cheers...

Brad

Love it .  Nice lighting.  I like how the background colors blend with the tiger. Sharp facial detail.devil

Such a lovely setting, with some great light.  Really, my only quibble is the composition, and I agree with Brad's thoughts on that front.

Thanks friends!

BTW Indian jungles aren't like African planes and one rarely gets the situation, where one can shoot at eye level.angel
