Etiquette
This charming youngster had come out onto the road from just beside the vehicle in the background. It was heartening to see that they let the tiger
have his space, despite the animal walking away from them. In the end though, it was the striped friend who lacked etiquette, for he walked right
up to us, denying us space! Well, I was only kidding; who wouldn't like a tiger walking close to them?

Nice image bhargava like the compo.with the tiger in the shadow the +ec was required i guess but that has made the bg looks a little too bright .One more step and you wuld have got his face in some nice sunlight .did u get that frame??? ofcourse all this is in hind sight tough to get it all right on the feild .....more so with a hunk like this walking right at you.

Its good to know that driver of the gypsy kept the distance giving the tiger some space. The walking pose looks nice. Agree with Roopak, did you get any images with the face in light? There is some noise in the background, is this a big crop or you did some sharpening? Thanks for sharing.

Thank you everyone for the comments.
When I started off shooting this tiger, I was unaware (or ignorant, perhaps) of the fact that there was memory only for about 39 images in my SD card. After I got this image, the camera went blank and that was when I realised I had to swap cards :( By the time I put in another memory card into the camera, the tiger was back into shadow :D
Mrudul, this is only a 10% crop, so I think the noise in the BG (specially on the vehicle) was because of sharpening.
