This beautiful tiger was lying down when we first approached the enclosure, but with such grace and agility he/she was up and on the move. Took this with the canon 40D (continuous) mode setting the and canon 70-300 lens, and dealt with fencing.

I sure would like to see them run free, but I do believe this cat haven is the next best thing, and much better than zoos or the conditions a lot of them came from.

I did a lot of cropping, and this was run through neat image, after several tries at noise removal I opted for this one.

Thank you for commenting, and I hope your not bored with them yet, do I need to take a break?

Have a nice day, it's going to be nice here today before the rain once again arrives.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

I think you're due a five minute rest period, but then get back to snapping these beautiful snaps.

A great action capture of this beautiful tiger Sandi. Nice focus and DoF in the photo.
