Wildlife Photo Competition 1 2014 : Entry Number 116

Judges Comment

Tigers are good subjects for close up portraits, all of those contrasting tones and stripes make a very graphical picture. You have chosen a wide aperture which is a good idea for this sort of detailed shot but unfortunately only one eye is sharp which makes the other, still very much part of the frame, a little uncomfortable to look at. The colours are nice and I like the black background. Good shot but it doesn’t have that something special to make it really pop.
