The hunters glare

Uploaded: April 22, 2004

Description

for one heart stopping moment I thought this agressive posture was aimed at me , thankfully the subject of Sahib's glare was my un attended tripod , such a big brave lad , but a real big softie at heart , but a wonderful chance to capture the instinctive threatening posture of a Royal Bengal , taken in captivity , UK

Hi Josh , the lens used was a Sigma 28/300mm and was around 3 metres away from Sahib when I took this , he is a very big cat and tends to look even bigger with his winter coat still intact , he is a real character and loves the attention #497229
