Eric, I can say nothing that has already been said.Well done indeed.
I have looked at these several times & still the hairs are raised on the back of my neck.
These shots stir up so much emotion, in me, that I am close to tears.
Some of the best tiger shots I have ever seen.
I think I shall have to go and lie down for a while
What an incredible experience and pics Eric. Congrats!
And your fine narrative helps us share in your experience.
Thanks you so much for bring us these wonderful images.

Do you really do all that thinking when you are out in the field Heck I just point and shoot and pray
Really wonderful commentary Eric, I enjoyed reading it thinking there was just the one shot. THEN I scrolled and then I smiled! Fabulous set, you really are an expert big cat shooter. I was looking at these and thinking "could I do that"!
Eric, I don't see any pictures! You sure wasn't just a dream?
Seriously: a magic experience indeed! and what a thrill! You did goodas you were able to get some wonderful images that your narration made more.... magical

Having seen a wild Tiger in flesh and blood you can never forget the sight. The build up of anxiety, excitement, and all other emotions to the point when the tiger actually appears is beyond words.
The whole experience, I think leaves us speechless. They say when you see a tiger in the wild it changes your life. Its so true. My first wild Tiger sighing in this very park changed my whole life. I vowed that time that I will one day work closely with this animal. And I was so fortunate that I didnt have to wait for an eternity.
Great shots of the rare encounter Eric. When you think of how these Bengal tigers take to killing people it really gives you a respect for them. One swat from those paws and you'd be meeting your maker. Thanks for the story and great shots.
Seeing an animal sitting on a rock or a tree in the distance from a cluster of crowded jeeps is one thing, driving around and having your "private audience" is another level altogether.
Superb shots Eric, WOW! Your narrative made me feel like I was right there with you, really enjoyed it, it must have been one helluva experience! Shots 5 and 7 are my favorites and very powerful, a big congrats!
What park were you in? I did this 2 years ago and I'm going back again in May on a private trip. Your description of the sequence was spot on. In a moving sequence you are likely to get a couple good shots for all the reasons you mentioned. In your case #5 is great. That is one wall worthy shot. If someone is interested in a spectacular tiger trip the first week of May contact me for details. It's expensive, but will be incredible. Congrats. Don
