p.1 #1 · Choti Tara - portraits with various changes as suggested by many
When the queen blesses you with her presence and is close at hand, what would you do?
It's portrait time.....
thanks for your valuable C&C. I have made several changes
Image 1. made the image brighter - lifted the curves - thanks Eric
Image 2 - removed the spot over the eye - thanks Ron
Image3 and 4 replaced with hopefully sharper images.

This is a super set. I really like them all. But I do have one minor nit. In 2, there is a irregular black spot above the eye. In that spot is a bright speck of dirt that makes it almost look like an eye. I'd clone out that speck ~ Ron

KD,
Each one better than the other, but #1 is worth putting on a wall. #2 so razor sharp that the other ear is out of depth of field. You did very good.

thanks Mansur, this was once in a lifetime sighting and it was out of this world.

The first shot is a real stunner, but 3 and 4 look a bit soft in comparison. Looks like an amazing experience!
Hi Dorina, thanks so much for the valuable comment. I have replaced 3 and 4 with hopefully better pics. Please let me know if it worked.

This lady is very close to my heart as i had first seen her when she was a 6 month old cub in tadoba. Beautiful images and thanks for sharing.
Supreet, indeed she is special. You must be so lucky to have seen her when she was a cub. Subrat had helped with all the arrangements for this trip and therefore a big thanks to him
