Tiger - Ranthambore Series #2

[Praveen Siddannavar]

In the previous image the Tiger was watching us and was not sure what it wants to do. To our luck it walked towards the jeep and sat for a while and I could not get the Tiger in full so only had to take close up shots, but later I requested the driver to move back and captured full image as well.

Wow that is real close :). Sharp. Lovely details and eye contact. A higher depth of field would have been great, but increasing the ISO further might have induced noise. I liked the composition. Keep posting.

Lovely composition. The background looks good too. The limited DOF looks good. Thanks for sharing.

It is always good to see the tiger up close. Composition is nice. Reducing the contrast a bit will strengthen the image. There is a dark patch in the background, probably a tree stump. A lower contrast will help there. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
