Posting after a long time.
We are back from a trip to Kanha. This is the first shot of the trip.
I have really started liking b/w and what I have now started calling wildlife landscapes.

Vikram,
I am uploading a version with higher contrast. This scene would work in Sepia and with slightly different tinge as well.
I tried to visualise multiple scenarios of capturing this image. Of course you may not agree with all of those.
I would have liked to use a soft focus lens to create a dreamy image. Since I don't have a soft focus lens, I would have breathed on my lens to make it foggy and would have taken a shot. That scene would have looked somewhat like this.
Thanks for the suggestions . The possibility for pp in such images is endless and I enjoy revisiting such images again and again to tweak them.
One thing I noticed . may be this is not the place to point it out . I have posted the same image on orkut. The same file has been uploaded. How is the orkut image looks sharper? the difference is more apparent in b/w images.
Vikram,
Did you upload the same photo in Orkut? I looked at your orkut photo, it looks sharper and with more contrast. I downloaded the photo from this site and uploaded in orkut and it is not much different. So I guess, they might be two different photos.
Even I find it strange. Too easy to do something stupid with too many files to manage and working with two computers and multiple portable hard disks.
I shall try it out with another image to recheck.
Nice technique of creating the dream sequence! Thanks for the tip Sabyasachi.Quote:

One of the BBC wildlife photography contest winner(?) had taken an extreme long shot of a fox (which was a mere spec in comparison to the total image) dramatically pouncing for a hunt. I reckon the good thing about the image was that it somehow connected well with the surrounding.
This image conveys a similar feel. Good capture Vikram.
