The Shape of a Stalk !

This is what a hunt looks like before it begins.
No chase. No sound.
Just a tigress moving like she already knows the outcome.
Each step measured. Each pause deliberate.
Across the water, a sambar stood unaware.
The gap was closing.

Photographed in Dhikala, Corbett — in the Paar area.
This is Paarwali, a tigress currently raising three cubs.
She had walked across the pebbled riverbed, entered the water, and locked onto a sambar hidden deep in the bushes.
We had to leave as our safari was nearing its end.
When we returned that evening, we found what she left behind.
The kill had been made..

Sometimes you have to sit back, watch and observe. People will show you who they are without you saying a word.

Kabini’s Canopy Drama !!

Yesterday morning in Kabini, I witnessed a moment I’ll never forget. A leopard lay hidden, resting high on a tree, when a Malabar Giant Squirrel—an endemic acrobat of the Western Ghats—leapt onto the same branch, unaware of the danger. In a split second, the canopy erupted. Both species are treetop masters, but the leopard’s lightning leap turned into a rare mid-tree kill.

It happened in a blink — and I froze the moment with pure instinct and presence of mind. To witness, and photograph, a scene this rare is something I’ll carry for life. Nature is unpredictable, raw, and breathtaking… all in a heartbeat. Shot during our recently concluded tour at kabini

Photographed by - @amit.kushwaha.photography A young tiger, full of energy and confidence, charges through the river, leaving a trail of splashing water behind. 🐅

This moment is more than just a run—it’s a glimpse into the raw power and untamed spirit of the wild. Watching a sub-adult cub embrace its surroundings, unbothered by the rushing water, is a reminder of how effortlessly they own their territory.

Nature at its finest, strength in its purest form! 🌿🐾

“Moments like these remind us that the wild is governed not only by strength, but by awareness, balance, and respect between species.

This image was made in Bhadra Tiger Reserve, India, where two sub-adult siblings came across a gaur on a forest track.

Too inexperienced to pose a real threat, the tigers watched intently, testing their instincts. The gaur, fully aware of their limits, refused to move — holding its ground with quiet confidence.

As a photographer, I framed the scene from behind the tigers to capture their anticipation and the bold stance of the gaur in the same composition — a story of predator and prey, yet also of coexistence and resilience.” - Sudhir Shivaram (@sudhirshivaram)
