One of the beautiful tigers at B.Pine. The sun actually peeked out briefly which helped me in getting some good light for this capture with the lens.

I try to aim the lens through the opening of the fencing, and am able to blurr out the fencing in the foreground, which can be a challenge, and not always a complete success.

Thank you in advance for your comments.

It is always the problem with fences in front and back But you have managed it quite well. Very good photo of this great looking Amur tiger.

You did a great job Tigz. I like its pose. I might have cropped a bit off the ride side, but that's just me.
I know when I take baseball photos of the grandkids, many times I have to shoot through fences. I can blur it out if I really zoom in, but it doesn't always allow me to get the entire scene in the photo.
I think you are doing a great job.

Perfect shot of this tiger. I love the pose...particularly the face front look of the tiger's head. You did a great job with the fence...could crop some if you are not pleased with it...but I like it. Maybe one day I could draw one that good.

Another great capture Sandi - I agree about the cropping on the right but it is really just fine as is.

I suppose you might've cropped the right a tad but for me, I'm quite happy to focus on this beautiful animal...great work.

Good pose, I guess I would have tried to fade out the whole fence and not cropped any, but I know how hard that fading is to do. I think you did a great job.

Sandi, your narrative has confirmed to me again that taking a capture in these conditions isn't an easy job, but the result is beyond any expectation.
You've did a great job about the fences, my friend. My compliments!

He is so calm, relaxing, or maybe it just looks like it? Beautiful capture, Sandi.

This scene literally takes my breath away, such beauty and strength. Clarity, setting, composition...perfect. Excellent work.

I'm always in awe of these powerful animals who know their place at the top of the jungle heirarchy. When they move it's like a soft, fluid grace hiding an interior frame of unstoppable strength and speed. Even when they're sitting still, like this, their kinetic power is so apparent in those eyes and I liken the contrasts in the facial stripes to the contrast between a lounging Begal, looking like you might almost want to cuddle with this kitty, weighing in at nearly 500 pounds, and the explosion of deadly force of which it's capable. Whenever I think of the hidden power of a Bengal, this scene from the movie "Manhunter" comes to mind.

A very relaxed pose, but I would still be wary to get near...Wonderful colours on the animal

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
