Albino Gaur, the Indian Bison at Satpura Tiger Reserve, unfortunately, I could get a clear frame. But thought I will share it

I really like the lighting and you have excellent detail in the Gaur, Nishand. It's too bad your position was constrained as just a bit of a move to your left or right would probably have gotten those trees out of the background.

Nishand: this is a very nice result in spite of the less than desirable background, but that's what we encounter in the wild. I like the soft light and pose of the animal, but the file does seem a bit soft in the face on my monitor. Possibly it could be enhanced with selective sharpening. Very nice otherwise. Richard
