The vertical composition looks nice. Good to see three of them together. It apears to me that there is a slight tilt in the frame, was it done intentionally? TFS

Cute cubs! Adorable.

Atul,
The general rule in nature photography is to have horizon straight, and vertical objects like pillar, trees etc to look vertical. If there is one tree, then a person can argue that the tree is bent, but if there are many trees than one has to definitely correct the tilt.

Having said that, I find in amateur videos, people twist and turn and tilt etc and some of them even carry it forward to still photography.

There is a tutorial which describes how to correct tilt during post processing with lightroom. You can check it in the tips section: Indiawilds: Land of the Tiger. Conservation, Wildlife Photography, Communities (http://www.indiawilds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1510)

Cheers,
