This young tiger just started stalking infront of me. Taken with 1D Mark II, Canon EF 70-200 f2.8 L IS USM lens hand held. Cropped from the bottom (3504*2336 cropped to 3504*1490).

Shot at 1/100, f2.8, ISO 400 at focal lenght of 200mm.

What beautiful colours, it doesn't matter to me if he is not looking towards you. Great shot.I might have cropped it up to the tree on the right eliminating the blurred branch.

Probably safer walking away then charging at you :). You are so fortunate to have this opportunity. Some time soon I hope to be able to do this.

Love the colors and environment of this. Walking away doesn't bother me on this one but the bare sticks detract a little from this image. I'm amazed you get as many clear views as you do.

I have no idea how difficult it is to see and photograph these magnificent animals in that park so maybe any photo of a tiger will be a keeper, but this one doesn't work for me. The fact that it is walking away from the viewer does not make this very interesting and the OOF branches are a bit of distraction.
