This is my first sighting of wild tiger.As I was in the canter so did not managed to get a proper shot among the jostling crowd.In zone 3, beside the Rajbagh lake.

Congrats :). It does feel special when you see your first tiger in the wild.

Great that that you could even see a tiger through the windows of a canter. When will the Babus wake up to the fact that swifter ,relatively soundless vehicles with provision for 360 deg viewing and photographing are needed for wildlife safaris.Thanks for sharing.

Abhirup,
Congratulations on your first tiger sighting. F8 would have given you a little bit more shutter speed but not sufficient to rescue an image when there is lot of jostling.

The amount of tourism revenue earned in these premier tiger reserves is a lot. Unfortunately the vehicles continue to creak and groan and mar the wildlife experience. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

Nice capture. The expression reminds me of Mohan's maneater on move.
Bhai Abhirup, I share your joy most abundantly.
Thanks for posting. SaktiWild
