The Divide between Nature and Curiosity

[CmazzJK]

I noticed this young kid in the middle of the over crowded tiger viewing room with his face pressed up against the glass as the obviously agitated Tiger paced back and forth on the other side, and I think it turned out pretty good. I cropped out some bystanders and did a B&W conversion.

Would have been perfect but the connection between the glass and the boy has that thingie on his head...

This is a very, very nice shot.

The only way this might have been improved upon is if you could have moved a bit to your left to catch something of his face.

I learned a technique from Mossad training videos that I use in these kinds of situations.
The Mossad teaches that, when in a gun fight, start shooting as early as possible and close with your opponent, shooting continuously until he's finished.
When I am in a not-optimal position but the situation is very fluid, I start shooting and, while shooting,I continue to move toward the 'best spot'.
If the setup dissolves before I get to the best spot, I still have the next to optimum shots I've gotten already.

Now that's solid advise. And, I love the shot and, especially after the glass joint has been removed.
