FINE ART PRINT OF TIGER TWILIGHT ENCOUNTER
TWILIGHT ENCOUNTER is an image of a of a three year old tiger (Panthera tigris), photographed in Kanha National Park in 2018.
I first saw this young tigress in Kanha National Park in April 2017, when she was just over two years old and still in the care of her mother. I was back there in March 2018, accompanying a photo tour. After a wonderful afternoon gamedrive we drove towards the exit of the park just before closing time. The light was already becoming less intense, dusk was setting in. Suddenly she was there, walking on a track, coming from the right. A year older and now independent. Before she passed us, she thankfully slowed her pace for a second, surveying us with wide-open pupils.
The image is a crop, is quite blown up and therefore has a painterly appearance, as you can see hovering above the image.
