Realtime Roar

Gallery: WildlifePosted January 9, 2010444 views11 comments

Real time roar of a male Royal Bengal Tiger.
This is one of my latest Tiger shot, discovered very early in the morning, when light was very low. This is about less than 20% of the frame. This kind of roar with eye contact with Tiger less than 20 feet away, can give any cameraman shake and I too happened to cut his tail.

Thankyou so much for your kind attention & views !

Just to give you an idea of full frame capture, although it doesn't do justice to it, thanks to jpeg compression at 7 quality.

Great photo, you seemed to have captured the spirit of tigers with this shot. Thanks for sharing. Maybe a tad over sharpened, but does not matter.

Really like the tight crop! Very intense and nice texture in the face.

That close to a tiger and with a roar to go along would have given me more than camera shake. Wonderful close up of the tiger roar but the full frame looks more of an intresting overall shot to me. This must of been quite an experience. Amazing shot, way to go!
