    Happy New Year everyone.
    This is the straight, down the barrel view of the tiger we spotted at Tadoba Reserve. I used the 500 II to get this close-up view of the snarling tiger, Almost full frame, minor crop for comp.

    Great view of the Flehmen response here Sanjeev! Good sharpness for 1/40 too...
    I'd tone down overall brightness and add some midtone contrast as posted. Crop/framing is fine for me.

    Love the cheeky pose here Sanjeev, agree with Morkel on the midtone contrast boost, just a tad.

    Hi Sanjeev

    This tiger picture comes to good use :) Anyway in this picture as in the other what I would like is to tone down the background some, maybe not the tree but the green bush. This would create more contrast between tiger and bg, and make the tiger pop out more.

    / Happy New Year !!

    Hi Sanjeev - I think I like this one best of the three. Good suggestions by Morkel for taking it up a notch. Although the bg doesn't bother me, it might be interesting to see Gregor's suggestion implemented too.

    TFS,
    Rachel

    Nice clarity and IQ on this one Sanjeev. I like the previous poster's suggestions. Also think this one would work as more of a square crop with a centered face comp.
