    Hi All,
    Here is another one from my Ranthambhor trip last Dec. I should have reduced the SS by lowering the ISO but in excitement forgot. But was pleased to get this big fella in the open and so close.
    7D II
    70mm
    1/5000
    f/8
    ISO 1600

    Hello Sanjeev,

    Your big fella must have been so close, awesome sighting! Great to have this male out in the open, nice walking pose, those eyes mean business.

    Face is sharp with good detail. Framing works well. I have a feeling this might look even better if you flip it And how about another tiny curve adjustment, it might just add more pop to the handsome tiger?
    This has been a very successful trip for you, it is not often that one gets to enjoy such close encounter. I really enjoyed viewing, thank you Sanjeev


    Kind regards,
    Gabriela Plesea

    Big fella indeed his paws look huge. The walking pose is nice. Must have been quite the experience.

    Hi Doc -- A pristine looking Tiger, healthy and beautiful. Nice and sharp and looks big. Colours are nice as well.

    You have got the Tiger quite close and I feel you should have tried a lower angle and also a wider perspective, seldom you get to see a tiger so close. The ss is a bit excessive , you could have lowered that iso , pretty high for the 7dII.

    TFS !

    he is a beautiful tiger, as everyone remaked he looked BIG! Pretty well fed too, I like pose with his slight sideways glance a if he was acknowledging you were there but didn't warrant a full gaze - Very majestic of him! IQ looks good - no reservations at all.

    Hi Sanjeev, looks like route 3 and a favourite of Arrowhead, so this could be her. She tried to take a Sambar down around the Palace, what a commotion.

    Another cool image, albeit the SS is a bit excessive, those feet are massive and when you see the pug marks you can easily relate to the size of these beasts.

    TFS
    Steve
