looking down i’m free, it was worth the wait, stay proud of me
here's another shot from my bengal tiger encounter at the start of the year in bandipur tiger reserve, india. a week before that moment my friend and i were in a guesthouse talking about animals, and which we would most like to see if we had the opportunity. i'm lucky that i've already seen quite a few, but there are two big ones missing from my list: a whale shark and a tiger. now technically i have seen a whale shark before, when i was in holbox in mexico, but that encounter was so quick and rushed that i don't fully count it. also i have seen a tiger in real life before, but it was in a zoo in scotland of all places, so that most certainly does not count either. after i decided upon these two big beasts my friend pointed to the bathroom door and said that behind there is a whale shark, after which he pointed to the front door and said behind there is a tiger. the question was which door did i want to open? after clarifying that i wouldn't drown in the bathroom or get mauled to death on the porch i gave it some serious consideration and said that number one was a tiger. i didn't know at the time but my friend was absolutely right, there was a tiger behind that door. i mean it took a few hundred kilometres with a train, two taxis, three buses and one fated jeep in order to get there, but it all began by walking through the right door.

here's an alternate photo of the tiger walking out of the trees
