Well, Jagdeep, you may not have had time to change the settings, but you were certainly prepared for her! Your timing was perfect, composition is marvelous, I love the DOF and bokeh – and wow, oh wow, do I love the perspective! That angle of view really gives places her in her element. May I ask, what was the approximate distance between the two of you? And from her to the bank in the background? This isn’t just an exquisite image for me; it’s also inspiring me to shoot wider on my next trip. Thank you for sharing this! – Michael

Thanks @Michael_Thornton , tigress was about 15 meters from me and the bank was far off.

PS. Please don’t mind my late response, sometimes things skip my mind due to work load and old age too :wink:
