Hi Harshad,

Sharp image of a cub and great eye contact. However, it looks a bit desaturated to me. How would it be with a little saturation boost?

Cheers,
Kartik

stunning image - love the eye contact Harshad! I would also up saturation just a little. I would also like to see a portrait crop of the face, since it's full frame. :)

Harshad, the image and the cat are powerful. How close were you to the ***** cat? While more saturation is requested, from what you recall is this the color of the cat at capture?

Really like it!

[Ken Watkins]

I see little need to increase the saturation, this looks like the colours of a Tiger to me.

Powerful portrait. Shame the tail/rear is clipped but would take this any day. Don't feel sat needs boosting, but do feel contrast and brightening by about +6 may help as looks a little flat.

From previous posts of the Indian tigers, this was mentioned as their coloration this time of year. I like him in shadow and the BG in sunlight. Nice and sharp on the face. More DOF to get the body sharper would be nice IMO. At ISO 200 you had room to up it. Also please post shutter speed and f/stop used. Thanks Harshad.

Beautiful portrait, with nice eye contact. The sunlit BG works nicely too.

Wonderful shot. I like the cat looking at the camera. The pale plant to the left of the cat's head is a little disturbing but not much. Great as it is.
