This is a wonderful capture. Over the years I've wasted a lot of film and (more recently pixels) trying for a shot like this. Thanks for sharing yours!

WOW! That's truly a wonderful and gorgeous picture!
I love to see wild animals (such as tigers and lions) with their mouth wide open.
Just like the lion, the tiger has a perfect and beautiful mouth. Their mouth is huge, wonderful, fascinating, stunning, dazzling, powerful, amazing, incredible, imponent, majestic, admirable, very nice and attractive (just like the lion's mouth).
Its teeth are amazing. The tongue is pink and gorgeous. The general pink inside their mouth is also... wow! All of this makes the difference.

TY all for the lovely comments (and I bow ...)

for the above comment to go into more detail in basic terms, this temple where the monks are supposedly letting these great tigers roam around freely is untrue, what goes on behind the scenes is shedding a more disturbing picture. What people dont know is that these elegant tigers are beaten with metal poles and are kept in small poorly cleaned enclosures, in terms of the baby cubs this is bad, this is captive breeding and it is illegal. The way that these tigers are handled is poor as well, the tigers exhibit fustrated and stressful behaviour as a result of poor handling. the tigers are also malnourished from a poor diet. the full report on the tiger temple can be found on www.careforthewild.com
