    Another welcome from me Rucha. Lovely drinking pose, and she is well aware of you. The trigress is nice and sharp, with well exposed colors. Comp wise, I would maybe take about half off the top, as she is looking into the water. ( as is, the tigress is too central ) I also feel this needs a slight CW rotation. Keep them coming.

    Drinking Tiger hey, nice opening shot. ;) I can see Harshad has some competition in the family.

    Rucha, these are only my thoughts and therefore when you get all the feedback then look at all of them together to hopeful distill the main key points. In no particular order:

    - I think you need to slightly rotate the image CW so the water line is straight
    - The overall image to me looks a little flat, Harshad a little tweak in Curves just to lift it, then perhaps +10 in Saturation and a slight hint in Selective colour (neutrals & blacks)
    - I find also the placement of the subject to central in the height, so would look at an alternative crop & off center too
    - Is this a big crop, or full frame. Harshad I am still not convinced about the 7D & noise?

    Saying all this I commend you for your first post, you have done very well, no doubt a few tips from HB. I hope and look forward to many more. Competition for Harshad at last :D

    Hope you don't mind I quickly did this to illustrate my points, hope it helps. ;)

    All the best.

    Big time welcome. Very strong first post and the few tweaks by Steve have made it even stronger. One you should be very happy with. Your husbands' images have been inspiring and have made many of us dream of coming to India. Very nice to have you on board now as well and look forward to many more images from you as well. TFS

    Hi Rucha,
    Welcome to the forum! I like how Steve's re-post brought up some of the colors and made her more prominant in the frame. Very nice first post!
