    You have been lucky Harshad, or had your big cats telegraphed your arrival.

    Certainly was 'Golden light', a very rich image, what next I wonder?

    colour and light sure is rich here - lovely specimens too! early morning is great time for male lion sightings...

    here I go again with my pano crops - here is a suggestion with a little off the bottom and also a little off the top to remove the OOF rocky area in on the hill in the distance. what do you think?

    Great find and great light H.

    Agree that a little off the bottom strengthens this one.

    Amazing sighting and nice conditions for the photo. I find the repost suggestion better as well. Well done, Harshad. Looks like you are not only good with tigers but other big cats as well :-).

    It's all about the light here Harshad! Big congrats on this pairing.
    Morkel's crop suits here also.

    Beautiful cats in a beautiful setting Harshad. I like the space below of the op but would take from the top as Morkel has done to remove the bare spot. Nice light. Well done.
