thats nice image...crystal clear and sharp.... all color tones are almost same :)
I think you can increase saturation little bit, also personally I feel horizontal frame might have looked better, lets see what others say.

Hi Harshad,
The eyes are sharp and the space on the right in the direction in which the Jackal is looking adds to the image. The BG adds to the colour theme... Good shot... :)

Hi Kiran

This is full frame
let me know what looks better

[Kiran Ghadge]

Both are fantastic. I loved second one more, Horizontal looks better, Just one thought it would be better if you had clicked it 3-4 step back, I mean position of Jackal in frame

[Harshad Barve]

I have that too , will post soon

[Mital Patel]

I think to me this horizontal frame is better than the vertical view.
to me you have done really great job.

now please try some different aperture as i said before f/11 with higher iso and see difference.

Sharp image.Liked the horizontal composition better, as it gives a feel of its enviornment. The walk into the frame adds to the composition. Some more space in the foreground would have added further to the image.

Dear harshd,
it is a beautiful image. i will go with the full frame one it shows the habitat. if u had dialled up a the aperture value a bit i think the jackal's hind part would have been much clearer with and not much effect on the bg. i am too novice to critique u r images. but that will test my base of photography. so please do comment

[Harshad Barve]

No issues Nishad

hind leg has lost that clarity , great observation
But I think this is due to motion Blurr

I want that smooth BG ,

Harshad

PS , you can always see my 45MB PSD files , hind portion looks great there.

Harshad, the horizontal is better.
