I particularly like the contrast of the tiger\u2019s face and the grasses in the foreground. This photo was taken on our fantastic exploration of India<\/a>‘s wilder and remote parts, last February.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I took this photo on Neeleshwar Beach, Kerala. It was fascinating to watch the fishermen working together, using a method that has likely remained unchanged for hundreds of years. Their catch? Two builder\u2019s buckets full of tiny fish!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
