My first interaction with a king. Back in 2010, Yeda Anna or the Crooked tail was a terror of a tiger. Used to charge at vehicles for no apparent reason. Such was his reputation that the guides and drivers used to sit secured in their seats.
This was a special sighting, we waited for over 2 hours in almost 45 degrees heat waiting for this guy to step out of his hiding where we had spotted him. We knew he would come out for a sip of water just across the road. And after 2 long hours he did and what a sighting. No vehicles in the background with long winding road. had to go really low in the jeep to make this picture.
Thanks to Shalik Jogwe, who guided me very well while making this image.
