1. in what area is critique to be sought?
composition, title of photo, exposure, any other way to improve the picture. perhaps some light-PP advice would be good as well (am using lightroom)
2. what one hopes to achieve with the piece of work?
Trying to create the "dreamy effect",
like how they portrait Aslan, the majestic lion, in the movie "The Chronicles of Narnia"
3. under what circumstance is the picture taken? (physical conditions/emotions)
Cloudy Day, taken in the zoo. i just got my first DSLR for a week. was still getting used to it when my friend decided to bring me to the zoo for a photo shoot

4. what the critique seeker personally thinks of the picture
Personally i like the reflection of the tiger's face off the water, i like the ripples as well and how they reflected the light.
at 100% however the picture seems un-sharp , wished i had a better lens but i think i manage to get what i want with what i have
