    Hi Harshad, a very rich image colourwise, but I like it. I like the inquisitive stare, posture and position in the frame. Personally I do fined the black (branch?) rather distracting because of it's dominance in colour, but I respect you reasons for leaving it in. Good quality detail & sharpness where it counts.

    Harshad, I have to say that there is something special about this image (in my eyes) and I think it is a combination of the inquisitive look on the tiger's face, not fierce but enquiring and the emerald green undergrowth which provides the natural vignette. Almost as if she is inviting us into her space. You've connected us with this animal and that is not the easiest thing to do. :)

    Harshad, I find all your tiger images awesome and the look you captured on this tiger's face is incredible. I also love the rich greens. But like Steve I'm not sure about the thick black branch.

    Love the look she is giving you. Colors are very strong and saturated, exposed well and nice and sharp. Agree with above re: black branch and as Steve has mentioned above I understand and respect the reason it is still there:). Well done.

    Harshad - love the pose and look she is giving you but I'm not a fan of the oof leaves framing her. I respect your position on it, I just find them too distracting.

    TFS,

    Love the inquisitive pose on this beauty Harshad, the vignette vegetation really enhances.
    Only nit would be to reduce saturation in the greens down just a little for mine.

    Harshad,

    Very nice, just a pity about the big black branch, but that is nature for you.:)

    March?

    She is very pretty and I love the way she is looking at you. Colors look good on my laptop, black branch is indeed distracting a bit. Well done.

    Great eye contact and I like the OOF vegetation in the foreground.
