    Harshad,

    This is a great image, and I understand what you mean when you refer to the light.

    I have a very old set of Nik Filters which I can still use in CS3, all I have done is applied a skylight filter. what do you think?

    Harshad,

    I applied quie a lot of strength to my repost to show what could be done, perhaps it needed a little less;)

    Hi Harshad, you love your Tigers in water, so do I.:)

    To be honest I think you were not too far off on your original Harshad, the re posts look too 'orange' and the BG not very realistic from my memory:eek: Personally I might just add a bit in Curves/Selective colour & boost the Tiger in saturation say +15, avoiding the water & BG. Slightly cropped the top too.

    Hi Harshad, I like the composition. The tiger entering the water is an interesting capture. The contrast of the rock and water adds some tension in my opinion (which is good thing). Interesting discussion about the filter and curves adjustment. I think your original is nice but think the report by Steve adds some pop. Thanks for sharing.
