*Greetings From the Critique Club*
First off, I would like to say this shot looks really good and I am happy and thrilled to be able to critique it.
Composition:
In my opinion, what really makes this photo is the colors. The colors are simply wonderful! I love the blue that radiates from the background on to the tiger, enhances the shot ten-fold! It adds a really cool aura to the tiger. I feel that the cropping for this particular picture works fine here, maybe shave a little off the right side. The trick though with shots of animals is to have the main focus be at the eyes. The eyes are what make or break most animal shots. I would really love to see this tiger's eyes head on because a tiger's eyes are strong and focused.
Lighting:
The lighting is really good on the right side of the picture and the background as well, but it seems that the head is a little too dark, it takes the focus away from the head and to the lighter areas away from the head, which is the most important part of this shot.
Focus:
The focus here is quite interesting because there seems to be some spots that have stellar focus and parts that aren't as much, especially around the head, again drawing attention away from the head. Good focus overall though, neat and crisp.
Other Thoughts:
If there were any suggestions that I think would help you out the most with this shot would be to get the tiger's eyes head on. I realize this isn't the simplest of things to do, but it makes the difference between a good photo and a superbly awesome photo. Just a few small and minor adjustments could turn this into a stellar shot.
Overall:
A nice looking shot, keep up the good work.

| I might have cropped back a little more or tried to get the close-up with more of the eyes. Nice shot. Beautiful animal. |

| Great subject. I like the composition and your background. It needs a little more space around the subject, though. |

| Beautiful tiger, seems not enough contrast around the head. But, I like the blue light (or adjustment). |

| I love this shot, but then I've always thought white tigers were great. The blue in the background really complements it. 10 |
