Very tight composition. Is this a large crop? There seems to be some other tiger nearby. Lot of noise in the image. Is this from tadoba?

I guess you wanted to mean 30th June? As 30th July is yet to come.

Good to see the actual image so that now we have a better idea. I guess you are using teh centre auto focus point to focus, so the tiger is at the centre of the frame. You can use a peripheral AF point or use the focus recompose technique to get the subject off centre.

In this image, less space at the bottom and more space would have resulted in the ear of the second tiger not getting cropped. A wider composition with more space at the left would have been even better. You were already using f6.3. Using a slightly narrow aperture like f8 or f9 would have given you more depth of field ie. more areas under focus. So more of the tiger in the background would have been in focus.

Cheers,
