    Hi Haseeb, this for me is the best of the series, albeit you may again have a few more tucked up your sleeve.

    Colour looks lovely, with a nice warmth & vibrance to the overall scene. Like the placement of the subject in frame, but it's the awesome, relaxed pose and look to camera that wins it for me. This for me typifies why we need folk to see these magnificent animals in their true habitat and to enjoy the real majesty of such an endangered subject.

    Epic

    Hello Haseeb,

    You have quite a collection of tigerscapes in your folders, I am very jealous

    Love the title here and the image has a certain three-dimensional feel, quite different from what we see every day. Composition works for me and colours are just lovely, I also like the elegant pose and "presence" from the tiger.

    A well processed frame Haseeb and I like it as presented, good thinking on techs too. This trip has given you some amazing sightings, looking forward to more!

    Thank you so much for sharing,

    Kind regards,
    Gabriela Plesea

    Hello Haseeb are you well my friend? Haseeb a stunning frame ,it seems I have a lot to catch up on but yet again another wonderful tiger image I really like colours framing and your bold choice of framing in portrait. I feel many might go with a landscape orientation in this situation.,I love this choice you made,the tip of the tail is my only tiny tiny nit. As with Gabriela I do love these tiger scapes you produce.
    wonderful work Haseeb you should be very proud of your self and the effort you put in to finding these amazing frames to show us

    Hi Haseeb, I was waiting for this frame for you to post. Thanks for sharing at last! Lovely healthy subject, great colours and composition with the rocks and greens all giving a nice feel of the environs. Super eye contact, just wish the front paws were not obscured by the dry shrub. Well done and appreciate your sharing it. Techs are good and vertical framing is nice!

    Sweet setting and I love how much info it gives -- from the rocks to the bush to the forrest, you really get a sense of where these animals live. Composition and the stare work well. Might be tempted to clone out the darker leaf on the left of the tiger as viewed, but not a big deal. TFS

    Very nice. Like how the tiger is posed on those rocks. The framing works quite well. Colors and sharpness looks good as well.

    Thank you everyone for your comments and suggestions , as always much appreciated.

    @ Steve : Sadly, there are few places left in the wild to see these magnificent beasts in all its glory and as a result people are queuing up in big numbers to see them and as a result we seldom get to see the tigers in relaxed pose and importantly "only to us" sightings are now thing of past. In this case it was an exception I must say.

    @ Gabriela: I think i may well be done with the scapes , one or two frames from this sighting that is all I have now with me. Will be posting more portraits now.

    @Doc: I too would have loved to get those front paws in completion but as you know how Tiger luck works, but in this case i am fine with it as the dry grass is more part of this scene rather than acting as a distraction.

    @ Alex : What you might be referring to a dark leave on lhs of the Tiger is actually a butterfly.
