Hi Luggers,
We are getting near the end of my Odyssey through Tiger land -but not  
quite
finished.
Here is a folder of five photos of a Young Male Tiger that we spotted,
along with a lot of other jeeps, on a late afternoon. He was resting
in the long grass by the jeep path and when he started to move
all the jeeps jockeyed for position. It was like a Le Mans start
in reverse!
Here are the photos - taken with the Telyt 400 on the D700.

In the heat of photographing it was hard to remember to
push the Telyt lens barrel away from you as the tiger
moved closer so I had more out of focus images than
with the Nikkor 300 but the ones that were sharp were
really sharp.
C&C always welcome.
Cheers
Howard
