This is a composite, one pic. with focus on tiger and another with focus on deers. I must admit that I was inspired by one of Brad's pictures and this is my first attempt. :wavey:

Interesting capture (or captures) and processing technique. The head positions of the deer draw the eye to the tiger. The OOF mound in the FG is a unfortunate, but that there is probably not much that can be done about it.

Very cool, Jagdeep. I am seeing a bit of artifact around the deer and there's some center field oof area that looks odd on close inspection, but without knowing what you did, I probably wouldn't have noticed. It makes a great story.

Great story image. I think it would translate best viewed as large as possible. I wondered about the oof vertical somethings just above the deer.

This is pretty cool, the deer piques the viewer's curiosity to follow the direction of their gaze to the predator. As mentioned, the mound in the foreground doesn't contribute to the image in a positive way. The water body between predator and prey is interesting, I wonder if it sufficient to keep the prey safe.

This image does tell a story. As mentioned the center OOF area does distract, but doubt if I would have paid much attention to it without the techs on the composite image. Thanks for sharing.
