This image was taken in December last year . 13th December 2012 to be precise.

My first visit to Kabini and I sighted tiger in my first two safaris . This one was shot in the morning safari under very poor lighting conditions. A typical misty winter morning. The tigress was...

very nice vertical image ... nice timing .. you got the leopard in the only patch of light and with the shadow ... a slightly higher shutter speed would have made this image even better

Good one Bhargava. You could not have done anything about the tree in the backdrop. :-)

Thanks for the info sir


Nice image Suraj

Thanks for all the feedback....

Murugan ji ... yes this image is indeed special to me as this was my first tiger sighting in the wild. So as you rightly said it will always remind me of one of my...

This image was taken late evening in very poor light . The tigress was sitting in the shade , but suddenly decided to get up and cross the track . Would have liked the shutter speed to be higher but...

That is a lovely image.
Yes it is indeed heartening to see this tigress, that too without the collar. When we were there in winters, the collar was still there.
But why is it that when the radio...

Nice composition and perch .. Would have been better if the image size was a bit larger.

Thank you all so much :001_smile:
And yes I will definitely try to capture the habitat in future.

Thank you all for the honest feedback..

Yes this image has been sharpened in photoshop, and I personally was also not satisfied with the colours. I had increased the saturation but was not sure if...

Thank you all for the honest feedback.. Yes I too wanted to increase the shutter speed, but before I could even try the bird was gone :sad:

Mrudul ..I had done some level adjustments and...

Good one ... Would have been better if you could have got the whole body in the frame... I think he was pretty close to you, but since he was moving towards your left in the next few frames you could...

Thanks Mrudul,

Your point is taken. Will keep that in mind next time.

After having taken a few horizontal shots, I wanted to experiment with a vertical frame. Generally don't see many vertical shots of reptiles.
I have purposely kept the lizard on the top half of the...

Excellent close up shot Atul. Nice details.

He might look innocent,but this is no innocent guy Suraj. This male tiger is M1 one of the two male cubs of the tigress Mirchaini .They were last seen in the wild around April - May 2011 when we had...
