Nice to see these gaur relaxed and going by their work. The greens look good...nice that you included the water in the foreground. This image needed a higer DoF which would have been possible with say f8 or so depending on the lighting.

Nice environment photograph. I think there is a slight tilt to the image, you can try to correct that. Some less space on the right would be good. Agree about the narrower aperture. What was the ISO? Thanks for sharing.

I agree with the tilt. Clearly exposed by the horizontal separating the land and water :blushing::blushing:. ISO 400

I agree with the previous comments. Did you see elephants and other wildlife near the shore? How long did you take the boat trip?

The first boat ride in the morning is @ 7.30. It is a 2hr ride. Best ride to spot animals. I took this ride, spotted herds of gaur, sambur ,wild boar and also otters. We were not lucky enough to spot elephants.
