Sub Adult Tiger in Zone-4 Ranthambhore national park

15th March 2009, late afternoon, Sub Adult Tiger in Zone-4 Ranthambhore national park

LUMIX FZ18, F/3.6 , 1/320, ISO 640, FOCAL LENGTH 227X1.7= 385MM

Dipankar,
Is it a big crop? The focus seems to be on the leaf on the left side. You need to revisit your post processing as the whites in its face is burnt (over exposed) and underside of the log is too black and has lost details. You seem to be shooting from a top down position. Where was the tiger?

Dear Sabhya da,
The photograph is not significantly cropped, we were pretty close to the tiger (About 8-10 yards). the Angle is a little high as i was standing on the jeep while handholding the camera, trying to avoid the other obstructing vehicles (there was a crowd....!!1). Please enlighted me about what could be a better post process.
Regards
Dipankar
