I really like the comp and the orange color of the background. I also like the trotting action of the jackal.

[David Fletcher]

Cracking image Harshad. Love the space and your comp. The raised foot is a nice bonus.

[Judy Lynn Malloch]

Very interesting composition and it tells quite a story. Love the action you captured here Harshad and the tongue hanging out gives a great added touch to the capture. Thanks for sharing.

[Dave Barnes]

Very interesting comp Harshad, I like. Good detail and a nice facial expression.

[Gerald Kelberg]

Nice action and expression from the Jackal. I like the composition and the expanse of colour in the background, but wonder if it would be more effective with a little OOF foreground cropped off the bottom and a little more background off the top - to just above the diagonal created by the road.
The nose and lips look too black and the tongue looks too pink as far as I can judge. If you have added to the saturation on these, you may want to take it back somewhat.
Nice image - thanks for sharing.

I like the pose and the lines of the dunes in the BG. Lips, nose, and eyes do look extra dark but I've not seen this species myself and the rest of him looks natural.

The trot and the pink tongue wagging cause me to love this one. It could however be much stronger with the reposted crop (that gets the animal closer to the corner of the frame).

[Arthur Morris]

ps: Not sure why the increased SAT....

[Harshad Barve]

My sincere appologies Guruji for responding quite late as I was travelling
I liked the crop but would love to stick to original colors

[Arthur Morris]

Harshad-bhai, I agree on both counts.
