Comment my pics

This photo of my son (Guru Prasad) just happened and my cousin (Ranjit Rao- he is a great photographer - while I term myself "AMATUER", I consider him a "SERIOUS HOBBYIST, graduating towards being a ACE PHOTOGRAPHER"), says, "it is the effect of the light, the prop (staircase) and the angle that just happened". The photo is shot from my mobile (Nokia 6681 - 1.3 MP)


This photo was at the Nehru Zoological Park, when the kids wanted to see the Tigers. The Tigers were in a playful mood and the zoom was in place on the camera at the right time. The white tiger population is growing gradually in the zoo. Atleast they are doing well in captivity, have they been in the wild, ........... This photo was shot with the Canon Rebel XT and the lens was 70 - 300 Sigma from a distance of 60 feet.



This photo does not look so great in this version, even when I enlarge it despite the camera being 8.2 MP. I wonder why ? Any ideas, how to avoid it ?

In truth, my wife & son are running towards me and the sprinkler was turned. The guy in the rear is my bro-in-law (Satish) carrying his daughter (Sheetal - you can see her birthday pic elsewhere) and the girl in the pink dress is Madhumita, his eldest. The water drops were captured very well. Them and the droplets were clear, the trees and shelter were blurred to create a wonderful effect. (Shot with Canon Rebel XT with 18 - 35 mm lens).
