    Hello everyone.

    I hope you all are staying safe and healthy . This virus doesn't seem to relent.

    Well, over the past few days i was amidst a process of digging out old files and managed to find out 50 odd tiger images that i thought worth processing and posting on BPN. So, from today i will try and post Tiger images in every few days under the series titled as " Bore You With Tigers" as I feel it will lead to boredom with monotony. But nonetheless will look forward for all your comments and suggestions be it of any nature.

    Here is the first one from Bandhavgarh. This young male sub adult was resting on a log , with an expression of boredom , apt for this series . Unfortunately now this particular tiger is nowhere to be found. Image taken in 2016.

    Dpp 4.12, PSCC 2023, WB, curves, hue/sat, selective colours, one round of NR, sharpening. Did some cleaning of twigs here and there.

    Canon 1D MK IV, Canon 70-200mm f 2.8 with 1.4x T.C. @ 210 mm, HH.

    ss 1/1000, f/4.0, iso 1600.

    Looking forward for all your comments and suggestions be it of any nature.

    Haseeb, a fine opening frame with wonderful relaxed pose from the tiger albeit looks like he could use some excitement in life . I like the composition and the intent stare and both the paws in frame. Nice colours and details.

    Ok Haseeb .... start the race with your tiger frames .

    Nice opener with the concentrated look of the Tiger and the pose , what has caught his attention ?? Photographer ballyhoo ... LOL ??!!!
    I bet this was difficult lighting as you have lost the HL in parts .... sadly .
    Overall the colors looking quite good , just think the tiger is a bit " yellow" .... but might be down to the individual .

    Cool image from the old MK IV and you have been quite close .

    TFS Andreas

    Thank you Doc and Andreas .

    @ Andreas -- No disturbance in this instance , exclusive sighting we were well behaved . Added some vibrance and hence could appear a bit yellowish . And lighting was a bit tricky and hence the blown hl's .

    Looks excellent for me, I like everything apart from the white area on the right ear.

    Fully understand the issues with the tiger and the lighting , very tricky at times
