Gowri - Queen of Bandipur

[Praveen Siddannavar]

Gowri - Queen of Bandipur, and a proud mother of 4 fully grown cubs, 3 males and 1 female. I believe this her 3rd litter, it is great to see her healthy and interestingly her cubs too are quite healthy. This was the last time I saw her on 2nd June'12 and look forward to seeing her again soon...

Nice to see this majestic animal with its reflection in water. The mouth is slightly hidden, else it would have been even better. Wish it had slightly turned towards you. However, that is not in your hands. Slightly more space at the bottom would have strengthened the composition. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Nice drinking pose captured. Agree with the comments above. Maybe a bit more space at the bottom or putting the watermark on the right would be good. Thanks for sharing.
