The adrenaline surge when making eye contact with a tiger is rather interesting, Pulse beat increases (but reaction can be controlled with practice), perhaps some atavistic reaction of humans when encountering an alpha predator.

Shot through intervening undergrowth, cropped to vertical. D7100 + 200-500mm. Ranthambore National Park.

If I saw this in the wild, I think something besides adrenaline might be surging. Beautiful image.

Now that's a close encounter. I like your framing on this and good depth of field having nose and eyes sharp. The patterns of the markings are really pretty and this lets you study and enjoy that beauty.

Thanks

I was in a safari vehicle. Open top and pretty low, but if one doesn't provoke a tiger, one is safe.

Thanks Cindy.

As you probably know, each tiger has a unique pattern.
