    Another great sighting Harshad. I like the light on her head, and would maybe take a bit off the right, so as to lose some of those OOF leaves.

    fall of light great here and love the in-jungle environment Harshad Bhai. I would crop tighter from right, top and bottom if you have the IQ.

    Excellent capture, good eye contact, also like the oof elements at lower left and right which give the effect of looking of a concealed site.

    Nice one Harshad. Super splash of light on this lady. Tricky with the oof elements. They are fine for me as showing the concealed nature of this superb predator.

    Beautiful tigress, well captured. Well done. I might play around cropping the bottom of the frame to reduce the amount of bright earth. That might just focus more attention of the tigress.

    Glad to see Kanha is still a great place to find tigers. Cannot wait to get back to India for my first proper digital tiger safari. Last time in India I only had time for a short visit to Ranhtambhore which was extremely depressing - for the ways tigers and eco-tourists are treated.

    Harshad, great capture but composition may had adjusted little bit to avoid the illusion of photographer trapped behind the bushes..
