18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Altered Images
Portrait Of A Tiger

A young Bengal Tiger photographed at Kanha National Park in Madhya Pradesh, India. To see a tiger in the wild is really something special. It takes a lot of effort to track and finally see a tiger in a jungle and every time you see one, its an experience. After all the anticipation, listening to the calls of different animals around, when a tiger finally appears infront of you, the moment is very surreal. When you see the animal you feel something which can not be described and then when you try to recall your sighting or try to narrate the moments to someone, every time, the tiger becomes more mysterious.
