My hands almost trembled when this tiger looked at me while i was trying to take a shot.... I guess its most hard to look directly into the "Eyes Of A Tiger", some how it runs a chill down my spine.

Perhaps he was equally startled to see you! Beautiful detail on the face.

@dYe: Haha...perhaps, thats because you don't get to see the other side of the pic, which would be me shivering to press the click button ;)
WOW! Awesome capture, Rahul! The colors are so vibrant! Great job on a beautiful creature! :)

@Still: Thanks pal. :)
Sensational. The slight blurring on the body brings the head into sharper focus, giving a nice sense of perspective and making that stare even more intense!

@Daroru: Thank you, i was focusing his eyes as thats what got me trembling heheheh... ;)
I hope you are not in the same cage he's in :)

Great shot!! I can see where that would scare the mess out of you!! Snap and run! Snap and run!! Beautiful!!

@Stephanie: Haha.... i didn't pee in my pants for sure ;) Yes, snap and run is true haha..
Nice closeup. He does not look like very willing model.

@Evie: It took him some time to be more willing, the other pics he was in fact smiling. Made me wonder if its a "she" and probably hypnotized by my magical charms hahaha.....
natural color...great
