The winter is about to end in Delhi. Not only people but animals are now trying to get used to harsher sunlight. From Asiatic lion cage in Delhi Zoo.

Nishand, I'm afraid the poor light did you in here.
Not much you an do to salvage this one. It's very tough to get a decent exposure when the subject is in both bright light and dark shadow. Better to wait for better light. 
Not sure why you were at a 1600 ISO?

This lion has very interesting markings on hind legs Nishand. He looks like he has been through a lot. I encourage you to make some comments on other photographers work too. I think it helps me to look at others' work and try to figure out how they could have done it better, and maybe how I could improve my own photos based on what they have done.
