Wildlife Photography

Got some old "Shikaar" tales to share? Found a great new spot to Fish? Any interesting camping experiences? Discussion of Back-packing, Bicycling, Boating, National Parks, Wildlife, Outdoor Cooking & Recipes etc.

lucky you dr.jk
Had spent many days in bandhipur but was not fortunate enough to spot any tigers. Did get to see a leopard hunt though. It happened so fast and i was so much in awe, i just completely forgot to lift the camera :D
All my life i been to forests throughout our country,this is the second time i could get a decent picture of a tiger.
Kshitji,you should try JLR on week days the crowd is less and have more predator movements.

Thanks for appreciation Dr. Jayakumar :D
I generally edit all my picture using Canon Digital photo Professional software! Occasionally, I do use Snapseed or Pixlr Express to give finishing touch to my images.

Got interested in photography about a year back. Wanted the Fujifilm HS 50 EXR and sized the opportunity when it was launched in India.
Decent camara, especially for people who get confused about lenses (typical me) :oops:

Here are a few photos I took. Please do excuse ant flaws. Still trying to improve :)

Great going Big Daddy :D
A few suggestions....
1. Pay attention to overall lighting of the subject...
2. Try & catch decisive moments engaged by the subject....
3. If your shots are handheld...try using a tripod....
> Keep them coming pal....
