I reckon had the DOF been wider you could have blurred the background artificially in PP legally (I did it in an entry of mine in an advanced challenge recently and my image was validated). That'd leave the tiger in good focus and the background happily boring :-)
Just a thought. Nice image. I love tigers. They're not afraid of water like lions, so they're masters of the land! I sort of see what tanguera meant about hugging them. Apparently you can train them into submission by flicking drops water from your fingers in their face from a young age. I don't know if I believe that or not, but if you could manage it while hugging them you might get away with it :-)

Well the landscape is beautiful, but I don't find the picture very interesting.
Too much grey.

Nice deer. I like the colors, it took me a minute to think of what a candelabra is, but the antlers do look like one that would be found in your home.

HA HA Love the title. I just find dear so wonderful. We have them near our house too. With a greenbelt nearby, sometimes they are running across the street at night and you can hear their hooves clopping on the pavement. :)
