We spent about twenty minutes or so working on the same tiger seen in the preceding image in this gallery. Because the zoo offers three different viewing portals, I was able to get an entirely kind of image here. It comes at us over the crest of a slope and pauses threateningly at the edge of a small gully. The image fires the imagination as it moves towards us out of deep shadow. It is at the highest point of its journey. An instant later it will turn and begin its long pace to the bottom of its compound. It seems to linger for a moment, studying my camera as if to defy my presence.
