Start reading the image Tag-by-Tag:

TIFFGetField (inImg, TIFFTAG_IMAGEWIDTH, &width);
TIFFGetField (inImg, TIFFTAG_IMAGELENGTH, &height);
TIFFGetFieldDefaulted (inImg, TIFFTAG_BITSPERSAMPLE, &bps);
....
....

Allocate memory for Image to be read by strips and to be stored in RGB arrays, with constraints like:
TIFFTAG_BITSPERSAMPLE
TIFFTAG_PLANARCONFIG
TIFFTAG_PHOTOMETRIC
...

Moreover checkout tiff doco for detailed explaination with sample code.
