Is this tree too underexposed for this picture ?

I metered (center weighted) the white tiger and opened up one stop (since its lighter than medium tone) , but the tree seems to be underexposed ?

Oddly enough, photo.net doesn't seem to want to show your photo. I think the tree seems fine on my monitor; actually it looks to me like the tiger might be overexposed -- seems to be blending in with the light background.

Both tree and tiger look properly exposed on my monitor. A beautiful shot of an admirable subject!

I think the exposure is fine. However, I would like to see the branch almost touching the tiger's body removed. The tree itself is fine.
