Wish I had a chance to move towards a little left to shoot this more frontal, but was helpless.
still, was lucky with soft light falling on tiger and background (right top corner)

Terrific image Kiran

Dude by NOT paying membership frees you are loosing so many IOTW awards

Kiran, I prefer Harshad crop of this siting, but your image has more intense content, with the raised paw & look. Not 100% sure on the colour, as the image is not sRGB and when viewed in PS it gives another different look/reading. As per my last comment, if you wish for your images to be portrayed in their best way, you need to convert your file to sRGB, not RGB for web postings.

Links that might help, note resizing is 250kb now.

Kiran - nice intense stare and I like the symmetry of the raised paw and the curled tail. Good sharpness too.

TFS,

Thank you all...

Harshad - thanks man :), will surely go for membership soon.

Steve - When I see it in PS it does show sRGB, I have attached screenshot for reference. Do let me know if I am doing something wrong here.
Also file size is 247kb. please suggest.

Hi Kiran, if you look at your image in PS it shows that it has an untagged profile and when opened in PS there is a big colour shift. If you go to Edit, then using Convert to Profile and the Source space should read RGB... which is the colour space you were working in, then change the Destination space to sRGB.... and then go to File > Save for web following the steps outline in the links, your image will be displayed correctly with no colour shift, as sRGB format is designed for web, projection etc.

Colour settings is for your main Workflow and is not for what you are trying to do, looking at this, one thing you need to change is where it says Working Space RGB - it should also read Adobe RGB... not sRGB...

Hope this helps

Steve

great that helps Steve.... will take care next time. :) thanks....

Hi Kiran, I hope it does make sense, as sometimes translating isn't that clear and I have lost count how many times I have set the Colour setting etc up for people on here. Two key areas you need to get right, one is the Colour settings, the other is a calibrated monitor which needs to be done on a very regular basis (at least once a month) to ensure consistency.

Good luck and look forward to seeing you next posting in glorious sRGB, LOL. :bg3:

Kirhan,

Reverting to the image itself as presented here, to me it looks a little red, I am viewing in Mozilla Firefox which has built in colour management.

! opened it in PS and it looks less intense which I am su
re it is how you meant it to look.

Whatever it is a mighty fine image.

I like the bright BG and the tiger in shade - a favorite scheme with my bird images. Good timing to capture the raised paw and intense facial expression. I would prefer more room at the bottom for the virtual legs.

Superb shot, Kiran! Absolutely love it.
