Long lashes indeed Sanjeev, nice extraction of detail in the fur here considering your low S/S, I gather light was @ a premium?

Nice detail on the gaur. Little tight at the top. Those are some long thick lashes. The background is great.

Hi Sanjeev, very nice indeed, good detail, but why not up the ISO to 3200? You did well on the SS and I feel just on the cusp of the DoF, a bit more again would have been good, killer BKG.

Again, just a simple Curves adjustment will help add a bit more tonal range/depth to the subject, well done.

Hi Doc -- Agree with the above , but the bkg makes the difference. Nice RP by Steve .

Hi Sanjeev .... never seen a portrait of a Gaur calf , so thanks for that .
Well captured , maybe a bit tight at the top .
Just wondering about the techs .... i do miss some critical sharpness , surprised that nobody mentioned the softness in the horn and the nostrils , looks like being hammered with NR . No detail visible ????

Steve has taken the image where it needs to be from the tonal POV .

Nevertheless i like this one .... TFS Andreas
