tiger portrait wildlife-photography

One adult Bengal tiger walking forward on a horizontal fallen log that crosses the lower third of the 3:2 frame, occupying the center third of the image and filling roughly half the vertical frame with its body and head visible. Two secondary wood elements sit left and right on the lower edge: a thicker trunk segment lower-left and a stubby branch lower-right, both in sharp focus against softer ground. The background is dense green foliage and mossy stones that occupies the upper two-thirds of the frame with soft separation from the subject and generous negative space in the upper corners. Rendered as wildlife photography at eye level with the tiger in mid-stride, front paws on the log and head facing camera with visible whiskers, wet nose highlights, and slight tongue exposure. Light is natural and even with soft shadow under the belly and gentle rim separation on the tiger's stripes, producing warm orange and deep black contrast against cool greens. Focus is shallow to moderate so the tiger and foreground log are crisp while the leafy background falls into creamy bokeh, preserving texture on fur, bark, and moss for a poster-ready composition.
