Tigers of Tadoba#1

[Praveen Siddannavar]

Visited Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve (TATR) recently along with Bhargava Srivari, temperatures soaring up to 45 degrees plus, unbearable heat for both humans and the Tigers, yet thoroughly enjoyed and had an amazing trip to this forest. In all 26 Tigers sighted in 6 safari rides, that included 3 different tiger families, all well documented. Images & my experiences of this forest coming up soon, until enjoy this image of Pandarapouni sub adult female.

Beautifully captured.. Thanks for sharing

[Bibhav Behera]

Lovely! Good to know you had some good sightings. The pose is nice. I like the bug just above the ear :)
I would crop a sliver from the left to remove the hint of the stripe above your watermark.

Look forward to more! Thanks for Sharing :)

Nice image. Adding to Bibhav's crop suggestion, slight crop from the bottom just touching the top of the first "d" in your watermark, so that the foreleg is not seen angled down. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

Thanks Guys for suggestions and comments, I did realize what Bibhav suggested but was lazy to crop it. Suggestions from Sabyasachi too makes more sense. I have made those corrections and posting it again... thanks

Nicely captured Praveen. Every single strand of hair is clearly visible, amazing focus. Thanks for sharing.

[Bhargava Srivari]

Praveen sir,

I'm glad you found the trip worth while :) Look forward to lots of images from our trip to TATR. A series of 16 images or more- one for each individual tiger we had spent time with, will be nice.

Cheers
