Lovely pose. The low angle and direct stare gives it a nice touch. The dark clouds forming on the horizon adds to the compostion. Thanks for sharing.

Nice image of a large bull,nice backdrop.Its short tail is dorso-ventrally flattened having thick black hair along the edges of the terminal third of the tail forming a brush, so well documented. Thanks for sharing.SaktiWild

Very good composition and eye contact. This is one animal I am yet to get a decent image. TFS

Nice alert pose of the Nilgai. Nice open stretch of land, enhances the image. When was this photographed? Thanks for sharing.

Nice habitat image.As said before he looks so alert & low angle makes him appear huge.

Thanks everyone for the comments.

Murugan, this was photographed in Jan 2012.

The low angle has enhanced the composition. We get to walk and click these animals in bharatpur. So it enhances the appeal for me. The depth of field is fine. The overall colour looks good. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
