Species: Tiger | Location: Bandavgarh National Park, India
By Ranjan Ramchandani
The tigress was sitting in a dense part of the forest with only a small opening. I decided to take a close up to cut out the clutter which would otherwise fill the frame and just as I was focusing she looked straight into the lens at me.
