I used a pro polarizer to get the greenery in the backdrop right.

He seems a big fellow, I wish you had got it in open. Two months ago I saw some wonderful photographers of T28/T17 mating near a water hole. This guy was really uncomfortable to mate with collared Tigress.

I agree. He is a big male. Slight tweaking of the White balance needs to be done. Lowering the contast a little bit will also be good.

I too heard that the tiger was finding it difficult as the collar was coming in its mouth.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

Thoudh it's a bit cluttered, i like this image. Gives a feel of the wilderness. I agree you need to tweak the WB. TFS

The habitat is nice. It was difficult to photograph in the dense growth and the crowded gypsies. I agree reducing the contrast would be good. Thanks for sharing.

The tree in front is a bit distracting. I agree with Sabyasachi about reducing the contrast. There seem to be a few blown highlights on the rocks.

Overall this shows the camouflage well. Thanks for sharing.
