    Dear All

    I am back at home from 47 days tiger trip.

    This tiger was photographed in Ranthambhore NP with D3, 600MM, ISO 800, 1/320. We had more than 50 sightings of Tigers in 21 awesome days.

    All C & C are most welcome
    Harshad

    Hi Harshad, nice to have you back.

    Like the low POV & pose, just feel the clarity/sharpness could be improved slightly (especially from Nikon ), could also do with a hint more mid tone tone too, as the colour again looks a tad thin? The OOF foliage may be slightly distracting, but nothing you can you, well on some of them you can, but I know your thinking, LOL.

    Look forward to more from you and Chas over the coming weeks.

    TFS

    Hi Harshad - Welcome back. Sounds like a very successful trip. Nice low pov and the open mouth is great. I agree with Steve on the sharpness. Oof foliage doesn't bother me as much as the bright highlight behind the ear. Looking forward to seeing more from your recent travels.

    TFS,
    Rachel

    Hi Harshad, a beautiful image. Your repost is alot better but I would still tone down the highlight ever so slightly

    Awesome...love the open mouth and whiskers. You've hooked me on tigers now and I look forward to my next visit to India. I'm traveling to Arizona this week and will post some of my tiger images when I return.

    Lovely image! TFS, what are those yellow colored OOF objects in the foreground and background? Flowers? They look really nice

    Welcome back Harshad,
    A nice return post, I like the soft, warm glow and the fore and aft OOF areas.

    another marvelous image. Must have been one heck of a trip.....I like the repost....Only suggestion I could make is that I might use a slight Darken/lighten center filter in Color Efex4 to pinpoint exactly where I want the viewers eye to focus....I find myself looking first at what the Tiger is viewing...
