Hi Badruddin!

Lovely warm color space, that is originally like this, not by a filter. Very good composition too. The vegetation and the lovely fur make a soft feeling that looks great. I don't mean soft as unsharp here just that all materials seem to have a pleasant touch. It looks absolutely fine, I could watch it all day. TFS!

Best regards,
Andor

Hi Badruddin.
Very nice shot of cute stags pictured at beautiful scenery. I like natural colours, excellent DOF and sharpness of the image and excellent composition. Well done and TFS.

Very well composed shot of this pair of Cheetals, Badar.
The tall grass matches the colour of these animals and provides a fine background.
Kanha NP must be a great place to visit. I wish to go there some day when the time permits.
TFS and regards.

Hello Badruddin,
These Cheetal Stags show well in this lighting where they would otherwise be fairly camouflaged. Excellent sharpness and fine composition in their natural habitat.
Thanks for sharing this fine image and informative note,
Ivan
