Wildlife Photo Competition 3 2014 : Entry Number 91

Judges Comment

This came pretty close. I love the interaction between tiger and the deer who have accidentally stumbled upon their fiercest predator. The short depth of field is so effective, bringing all attention to tiger as i can imagine was really the case for all, and the colours and diffused tones take us into the jungle. Great wildlife shot, it took a grizzly competitor to put you in second place.

Congrats to the winner! Welll done. Thanks to the judges for their consideration. It was a once in a lifetime moment at Bandipur Tiger Reserve, Karnataka, India. This was shot in July 2014 during the monsoons. The lush green grassland adds a punch to the scene. This was shot with a canon 700d and. Canon 300mm f2.8 l is II lens and Kenko 2x pro 300 converter. This was shot as jpeg. In post processing the white balance and tones were adjusted slightly. Thanks again. Ram DORAISWAMY, from Bangalore, India, currently residing in The Hague, The Netherlands.
