Harshad,
I agree with the previous comments. Watching a tiger is always an awesome experience. Especially when the tiger is in such a scenic location.

You need to revisit your post processing. The water in portions have lost details (underexposed) and the rocks on the right bank are over exposed and have lost details. You can recover the details. Also, the colour temperature (white balance) needs to be lowered a bit. Warming the colours introduces a yellow tinge and is noticeable in the rocks. Our best images don't need much of post processing beyond minor tweaks. Any thing more, and it starts ruining our pictures.

Overall, this is a fine image and need some minor tweaks. I am sure, a lot of people will envy you. A superb experience. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

Hi Harshad,

Nice enviornment photograph. Getting a good photograph of a tiger in water, definitely makes your trip worth it. The water flowing on the rocks add to the image.
Liked the composition.

Look forward to more..
