Absolutely amazing shot! The clarity and the expression captured is fantastic. I am no pro, so I can't comment on the technical or advanced break down of your photo, but I still think it was a job well done. :mrgreen:

Absolutely great picture of the tiger. Beautiful! I wish the fence was gone though.

I am a total newb to photography myself, so I don't know much about what makes a shot good or not, and I am still trying to learn alll the photography lingo, like stops, DOF, and all that malarkey, butI do know what I like. That is a great shot. I went to the zoo a few weeks ago, and the tigers were being a lazy bunch, so I couldn't get any good shots of them. The coolest shot I got was a chimp walking around with a blanket on his back like it was cape or something.

thanks for the comments!
i agree about the fence. i was trying to get a better angle but i was actually taking the shot through a pretty small window with a lot of people around. he was pacing back and forth waiting for food which is why he has his mouth open like that i'm guessing.

lol snyper i know what you mean. the mother tiger is usually just lying around. she was actually lying on a rock right outside of the view of this shot. this is one her "babies"... only a few years old but that cat is massive!
saw a gorilla walking around with a burlap bag on his back like a cape lol. he was so far away though!
