Common Tiger

[Prashant Jois]

I was forced to keep a tight crop as there were lot of distractions just blow the spot where this butterfly was sitting. Also had to clone the bottom right corner to take out some unwanted dust in the frame. This was a handheld shot using a Canon 7D with 100-400 mm lens. ISO 100, 1/320s, F 9 in aperture mode, EC +1/3 at 400 mm.

Thanks for viewing and please pass on your comments and critiques.

Nice colours and details. It is good you used a narrower aperture like f9. A slight more space on the left would be good. Thanks for sharing.

Nice details. Compositionally, I would prefer a more rectangular crop if there is not too much distracting material to the left of the frame. Else, a vertical image would have been fine too, if you had a clean BG as in this case.
