Nice image Sabyasachi. Looks like the tiger wasnt happy that its privacy had been disturbed. I have heard and seen many photographers deliberately irritate the tiger to get the expressions desired. I am sure that this guy more than obliged you without provocation.

I remember once while on safari in Corbett we had spotted a tiger and it charged at us. After we came back to Dhikala while having tea we bumped into a famous tiger photographer whose name I will reserve as this is a public forum. When he came to know he said that he will also try to catch the same tiger. That evening he showed us the images of a tiger in khinnanauli range with similar expressions. he also admitted that they had to provoke the tiger so that it could almost charge. One can still see those images in his website and many more similar ones. What a pity!!!

Thanks for sharing.
