    Nicely done Harshad. Great colors and I like the pose with the head and ear outline being within the line of the back. Grasses add to the the image and you got them all without any on the face . I think this is one of your best. I think this one would also work well with more of a square crop (8x10) to just outside the taller grasses on the left (as viewed). Would help minimize the small, first glance draw of the whitish line near the ULC (which only draws attention because it differs from the predominate colors of the grasses and tiger)

    Did this tiger just get up to check you out Harshad? Intersting body posture. I love the yellow BG and only nit is that grey branch across the top left.

    Are you going to let folks vote for the cover image of your new book or surprise us?

    Hi Harshad, nice stance, but I feel it just looks a little flat.

    Would suggest some adjustments in Levels, Curves, and some Vib/Sat, just takes it to where it needs to be.

    Harshad,
    Beautiful image. Nice to see an image without a road in the scene. The grass is beautiful and the intense stare makes the image. The contrast looks ok on my not very contrasty laptop screen.

    Ah with my limited Tiger knowledge I did not know the tiger was that young. Now it makes sense. It looks like she got up and then thought better of it.

    Good call and good luck.

    Lovely image, but agree with Steve it is lacking your usual pop but still a great image.

    Harshad,

    One of your best to date, the repost "pops" enough for me. I think you know what makes this special for me

    I prefer your repost over Tom's, that's too much for my tastes.
    Super shot as usual, if you wanted I think you could go with a tighter crop, but I like it as is as well.

    That's a great stalking pose. Looks like the tiger's eyes are very focused on its prey. The background in the upper left is a little distracting, but I don't know if I'd change it. Contrast could be boosted a little bit.

    Great capture.

    Pete
