As I said in the other thread, the only way you will avoid getting your reflection in the shot and this is how myself and Mr Pink did it is to get the lens right up to the glass as in pretty much touching it. I have to agree with Overread on the shot I'm afraid. Taking a picture of the rear end of an animal or a person rarely works as they aren't telling a story. Now if the Cougar had been walking towards the camera and yawning, then there would be a story in the shot. At the moment all it is saying is here are some animals in the local zoo. Do read up on composition, it will pay dividends in the end.I tried to get shots from the front windows but kept getting too much reflection of myself and the other surroundings in the window taking away from the shot so that is why I chose to go to a side window. The cougar that is laying down is the same one that I photographed the week prior that would not stop moving around. One the previous shot of the cougar I posted I was asked to show the window situation so that is what I am doing. As far as the snow storm, that is what the news around here called it since it was forcast as only rain going to happen.
Cougers and wildlife.
You must get theses shots in their natural environments,
Ahh but isn't that a little single minded and assuming that wild appearing shots are the only ones worth taking of animals that are not pets?
edit - I seem to recall reading of the tiger sanctuary run by monks and I'm fairly sure that appeared with pictures in nat geo.

Meh. Zoo shots are zoo shots.
