The Sal Forest

Jagdeep,
This is a beautiful image with wonderful colors and you captured the light so well that it dominates the composition in a very enjoyable manner. All the elements are perfectly balanced and add so much interest that it draws the viewer into the scene.
The large version is a must see . . . 

I love the light here, Jagdeep. This has a peaceful mood. I am on the fence with the large stump on the left. I think it could be cropped out, which would give emphasis to the light and the trees on the right.

Jagdeep,
I never thought I'd be saying this but I disagree with Preston regarding the stump. To my eye it is an interesting element of the environment and compliments the stump in the right background nicely.

Hi,

Very nice capture with awesome light. I like the image as presented.............................Jim

Superb! Nicely composed and the lighting is extraordinary.

Wow...had a good long look, Jagdeep. looks like an oil painting in the Western Landscape mode but an intimate rather than wide panoramic grandeur.  Lots to enjoy and appreciate. First look didn't know if was a stump or stone then saw the matching one on the right side. Very strong anchors...the shadows are deep and interesting, the diagonals of the limb and light rays carry you through...a fine crisp, backlight balance and comp on the three trees on the right and  then a wander down the tracks, to the source of all the magic.  Can I assume those are your wheel tracks...how long did you hunt this spot? I think it is a master work. Slightly darken the lighter shadows on the mid-image branching tree and limbs?...maybe, burn just a little of the sun spot top right...? Naahh, these are personal taste things. Great photo.  

A fine sunray landscape but doesn't quite have the magic of your previous one. The stump on the left looks like it's been reworked, probably to get more detailed texture. However, the result is that it lacks the lighting of the rest of the image and appears as though it doesn't belong. I don't think cropping it out is the solution because it's your central point with leading lines taking you to the right. I would just rework that stump. The composition is really good IMO. The long branches running in same direction as the rays build on those diagonals. The hot spots between the leaves should probably be looked at. This has a Garden of Eden look to it. 

This is great.  Awesome captured and processed.  Kudos.

Light and mood are wonderful, Jagdeep. The composition also works great.I like this!

Gorgeous, Jagdeep. Magical light. Excellent comp and well processed. I have no issue with the stump on the left. If I were to nitpit the processing, it would be the area at the top, just left of center, where there is some fringing around the spaces where the sky is visible.  Very minor issue on a stellar image. 

Jagdeep,

Awesome!  Fabulous capture of light.  I might think that your previous posts were stronger, but this one stands strongly on it's own.  What catches my imagination is the "light at the end of the tunnel" perception I get with the far light source at the right of the bottom of the tree trunk.  I also think that the stump on the left really helps complete the story.

Beautifully seen and captured,

Lon

Thanks friends!
I basically shoot big mammals and wetland birds, It's recently only, I have started doing landscapes seriously.
Since, the stump is catching lots of attention (both left one and right one), let me clarify, that these are termite mounds, part of the natural history of the area. These images were shot in Dudhwa National Park, I happened to visit for the first time. Winter mornings had gorgeous light sans any animals, so decided to focus on light.

I've really enjoyed your images from this series.  This one might be my favorite.  The light here is rich and inviting.
