Tigress Grooming!!!!

[Murugan Anantharaman]

Caught this female relaxing by the grasslands in the Telia region. One of the sub adult cubs of the telia tigress. She was there for almost an hour before she moved around a bit and then relaxed again. Probably was too lazy to do anything on a sunday morning :)

To see a tigress sitting peacefully for an hour is great :). Agree with Roopak, focusing with grass in the foreground becomes difficult, using manual focusing helps in these scenarios. A vertical composition with more space at the bottom would have worked well here, as presently the bottom part is getting cut. Were there lot of gypsy's around here? Thanks for sharing.

I agree that Manual focusing is the best option when the subject is in vegetation. Some more space at the bottom would have been good. Less space on the right and more on left would have strengthened the composition. Thanks for sharing.
