Good one sir....Is he by any chance Kuntu Tiger?We saw Kuntu 2 years ago resting in a small water hole.I just checked the stripes on this tiger's face and they look similar to Kuntu...

Lovely sighting. Its seems there are lot of sightings of Prince tiger in Bandipur these days. You were in the mini bus or gypsy? You were using a high shutter speed, but I think there was some movement (people get excited in the gypsy and keep moving), so there is a slight shake. In these situations try to rest the camera on a rod in the gypsy or something to get some stability. Thanks for sharing.

thanks madam, agree with you...But i was in mini bus,it is little difficult to use a tripod or like that as the bus have closed window glasses and its very difficult to place even the camera with long lens wen we get a moving subject...Anyhow i was near window seat and got little gap between the window glasses...And got this...

It is always nice to sight a tiger in the wild. One can imagine its power. The image appears to be a bit soft. Not sure why. What file size did you upload? Thanks for sharing.
