Beautiful colours.I liked the perch. Would have loved some more space on the right.He has nicely clutched the twig in his claws .

All these photographs are from the same trip?

[Harshad Barve]

Hi Mrudul

All are from Bandhavgarh but not from same trip.

I have been there 3 times in 2009

could not do anything about space as this is a Full Frame shot

I hope you are enjoying my images

I have decided to post on regular basis ( will try to post everyday)

Regards

Hi Harshad,

Three times to bandhavgarh in 3 months. Wow thats too good. I fight to go there atleast once a year, though I missed last year .

Yes definately enjoying your photographs. Keep posting..

Wow! Lovely photo. Brilliant colours and nicely blurred BG. Love how it is holding the twig. Very cute!

Harshad,
It is good that you got the entire tail in the frame. Nice pose. It is offering you a twig as a token of friendship perhaps. No wonder, that you missed the tiger.

The background is nice except for the black patch on the top right. Overall a nice image.

Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi
