Hi Sanjeev. although this does show 'habitat', I feel it might be a little lost in the environment and perhaps, a slightly tighter crop may help, but not convinced? I think like the previous image it lacks the detail and sharpness to bring out the best in the image. Again, based on the previous image, you have all the information there it's just tackling it in Post production stage and you don't need huge amounts of software to extract what you have, as I have already shown you. If the Rhino had moved forward so you had a clear POV I think that would have helped, plus the raising of the head. Looks like you were again fighting the harsh light too, creating some harsh shadows in the body form which is not ideal to get depth and detail. Adding some saturation just to punch the colours up wouldn't hurt too I don't think.

Lets see what others say, just my initial thoughts. :w3

I can't add anything to Steve's thorough critique and excellent suggestions for the future. In my gallery this would be a nice "memory" shot, but nothing more...sorry, Sanjeev...:bg3:...
Looking forward to more from your travels!

Hi Sanjeev
i am soorry i just hop on that running train that Steve started.I agree what the others said about the image and would also change the WB a bit because the rhino is too blue on my screen,and think it has to be more neutral!!!!

Cheers Andreas
