    Hi all,
    Here is another frame from Bandhavgarh where the tiger stoped drinking to gaze at us.
    Went for a pano crop here.
    1DX II
    700mm
    1/3200
    f/7.1
    ISO 3200 (Should have lowered it to 1600)

    Hi Doc -- Loved the eye contact and the reflection even though the water was not still. I also liked the pano frame, and the colours are better than your previous postings from this sighting. Adding the 1.4 to the 500mm gave you the reach but I feel there was some heat haze and not good to extract those finer details. But still a fine image and lovely sight .

    Does it need a slight cw rotation ?

    TFS !

    Nice view of this tiger and i like the pano crop. Light looked pretty alright as well. The ISO doesn't seem to affect the image qaulity here.

    Hi Sanjeev another nice image from that sighting .
    Pano works well , as does the super clean design . Lovely reflection and the look to the camera is good , adding to the scene and we have that important eye contact !!!
    Color and tone looking good to me , maybe a tiny bit of blue/ cyan in the white shadow areas , when being picky !!

    Love this one !!!

    A beautiful image, I like the composition, colours exposure look good, i might be tempted to lower the highlights on the right cheek. i doubt if fine detail will be clearly rendered at this magnification but what ​ do see looks good. A fine shot well done.
