    Default Tiger Tiger. burning bright, in the forests of the night...

    From a different location to Harshads extended family. :D

    This one came to investigate and say hi, I think, however we knew who was boss. Taken later part of the afternoon in some wooded area. With these guys there is not too much time to move position especially when they just appear out of the bush without too much warning. I have not quite mastered how Harshad can get his ones to pose so well. ;)

    Love this Steve. Coat detail, eyes and the white ear flags all shown beautifully. I think that Harshad actually IS a tiger! ;)

    I've heard from a dubious source that Harshad carries small amounts of chicken meat in his pockets ;)

    I like the eye contact. Any selective sharpening done? Thanks for sharing.

    Eye, bridge of nose, mouth, nothing on whiskers.
