Tigers in India |
Spotting a Tiger in the Wild
Animals have expressions too. How closely these equate to
our interpretation of them is a matter for debate, but
there is no doubt that they can look reflective,
intelligent and happy as well as the more usual amusing or
alarming. As in many other branches of photography, the
secret is often patience.
Most people start in natural history photography as an
extension of an existing interest. The big problem is that
almost all wildlife is wary, and some of it is dangerous
too. It is all too easy to become so obsessed with getting
a picture that you fail to notice the Tiger's mate that is
stalking you: it may sound melodramatic, but it does
happen, specially with scorpions and snakes.
The outsta nding
riches of Indian Wildlife, which compare favorably with
African fauna, are perhaps not sufficiently realized.
Tiger is the spirit of the Indian jungle. Even his distant
roar or an alarm call of some animal announcing his
presence, charges the whole environment of the Jungle with
excitement. Acute sensitivity, secretiveness and the
ability to surprise; untiring perseverance, agility in
attack, the tenacity to follow and the strength to
overpower are the qualities necessary in a successful
predator. The Tiger possesses them all in extraordinary
measure. He is the symbol of India's wilderness and its
National Heritage Species. His lithe majesty, powerful
muscles rippling under a tawny coat, his symmetry and
mesmerizing gaze is a tantalizing beacon to those who want
to capture this unmatchable beauty on their lens. Tiger
was ruthlessly hunted during the Raj, and in the sixties
by the dealers in the fashion trade. Human encroachment
upon his habitat and the killing of his prey species
further endangered his survival.
To assist in Conservation of this magnificent feline we
have joined hands with "Care for the Wild International"
wherein a part of our revenue will be donated through Care
for the Wild International to the National parks in India.
Care for the Wild International has spent over £170,000 on
vehicles and equipment, which are used to protect wild
tigers in India.
Tiger Photographic Safari is an effort to create a public
awareness about this endangered species. So come and join
the movement, explore and expand your wildlife and nature
photography skills and improve the caliber of your images
in the Tiger country.
We welcome you to join the Tiger Photographic Safari
accompanied by a Tiger Expert of more than 10 years
experience in tracking the tiger. The Safari will take you
to Bandhavgarh National Park in M.P. known for it's
highest Tiger density (56 Tigers) and sightings. Also
Ranthambore National Park, a park very strategically
located with easy access and good Tiger (32 Tigers) and
wildlife viewings.
