Dear all

This is B2 , the God of Bandhavgarh, but right now he is facing some competition from his own two sons.
This image is created with 7D, 300/f4, ISO 400, f5, 1/85, handheld , 90% of FF
All C & C are most welcome and much appreciated
Harshad

Hi Harshad Does look like one big healthy tiger !! Seems to have a look of concern !! Like the low angle and great keeping it sharp at 1/85 sec !! Wouldn't mind going to 800 for a little safety, camera perform well and should be no concern !! Excellent image !!

Dont know Alfred but my body produces noisy images beyond 400 ISO :confused:

Nice low camera angle, love it. I like his stare and expecting him to swing his head and look at me the same way!!!! Then there will be an accident in my trousers!!! :)
Have you tried cloning away those two pieces of long grass over his nose?

I am not expert in that and grass blades do not distract me :)

Hello Harshad,
Even without something close to him to give some scale, he still gives off a sense of power and size. With your backstory of his sons trying to take over his territory, the turned away look on his face seems to show his concern about his future.

I have not shot on 7D. However, I agree that one can safely use ISO 800, ofcourse with proper exposure. One tends to lose details at lower shutter speeds.

This is a big male and a great survivor. May God bless him.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

Awesome to meet this beautiful animal. He looks really big and tough. Very cool picture!

[Steve Kaluski]

Is his still as grumpy as ever Harshad, has he given up chasing jeeps and Elephants in his old age?

I like the low angle too, but think you have better to come. ;) Not really working for me, doesn't grab me, but I take my hat off to you HH at 1/85sec.

Yes , no more chase

Will keep on improving Steve , BTW does CS4 opens RAW files of 7D , I am at all not comfortable with DPP for conversion of 7D RAW files

[arash_hazeghi]

Very nice view, looks very calm and gentle! Agree with Al's comments, it's a bit soft most likely due to lack of shutter speed :)

[Steve Kaluski]

Not sure about CS4 & the 7D, sorry. Send the RAWs to me, gladly process them for you :):):).

Harshad uncle, you can download latest version of camera raw plugin free from adobe website, most possibly that has 7d support... then cs4 will open 7d pics even if it does not now.

Harshadbhai, that is one huge tiger, and I like your angle of capture. Colours look good.

[Bob Miller]

I can the feel the power of this animal in your photo. Great angle and light
