Love the big Cats and you've done a great job of captureing them my Friend, I especially like the Tiger. We have wild one not 20 minutes from our home in Khao Yai national forrect in Thailand.
Thanks for sharing these
Michael.

Now that's what I'm talking about! These are great! Mind if I use the tiger as a desktop wallpaper?

These are great shots Fred, I especially like the first one...a difficult one for me to get.

Thanks Michael, that must be awesome to see one in the wild. A bit scary though.

I'm very flattered that you'd ask Jamfke. I don't mind at all. Enjoy!

Thank you Leona. It was a lucky shot really. The Tiger was pacing around in the enclosure. I just happened to be there when it walked towards all the people shooting it's picture. It is my favorite of this set too.
