    Default Yawn

    My first digital SLR. Canon EOS 10D

    I was searching for some other images and stumbled on these. Though I had posted this probably long back, I converted the RAW again with lightroom.

    Canon EF 300mm F4 L IS USM, ISO 100, f5.6, 1/60, full frame image, handheld.

    Cheers,
    Sabyasachi

    Nice to see an image from a relatively old camera. How long ago was this? I'm expecting this was in the early 2000's, so won't make any suggestions. It will be nice to hear from you how you would have composed this if this sighting was to happen today

    Cheers

    Bhargava,
    Please feel free to dish out your suggestions. I would like to hear your critique before responding to whether I would like to make any changes in composition if I shoot it today.

    Cheers,

    Just saw this. Frankly speaking I am humbled by the suggestion that one day I can be equated with such stalwarts. Hopefully if I can make some meaningful difference to our amazing wildlife and wilderness areas, then I will feel that my life is well lived.

    My father was a Professor of Zoology and he used to take PG classes in our house and I had the privilege of listening. I have remembered a few things and importantly retained the essence. Both of my sisters are M Phil and PhDs. I don't have a PhD, so that way, I am the most illiterate in our family.

    I do read a lot and have been noting down and saving in my computer for the past few years. I wish, I had adopted the habit of noting down in diary like you do when I was visiting forests early in my career.

    Thank you a lot for your encouragement. It is highly motivating.

    Hmm..let me think. Would it have been nicer to leave more space in the foreground and move the camera a bit to the right and shoot?

    Bhargava,
    The foreground space is upto taste. You can have a bit more.

    Just wanted to know why you want to move the camera a bit to the right? If you do so, then you lose the framing.

    Cheers,
    Sabyasachi

    Loved the sharpness and colours here. The glint in the eye is just right and the image well framed. As Roopak mentioned... Tiger Tiger burning Bright

    Sankar,
    Just check its canines - its an adolescent. So you are getting that cuddly feeling. The tigress had left behind these two and had gone for hunt. I had spent about one hour and 20 minutes. No other vehicle. It came close and stopped a few feet away.

    I had only one GB card. I finished it and then downloaded into my laptop. And when the download was proceeding, I was shooting in film. Those days may never come again, especially with the increased tourism and the madness among photographers to get that shot; increased rules and regulations, smaller tourism zones etc etc.

    Cheers,
    Sabyasachi
