    This is really just breathtaking, Marie! So rich in color and detail and what a capture. His expression, body language and lip-smacking tongue all say he's getting have you for breakfast....and not as a guest!

Wow, this is great, Marie. Love the way he's licking his chops. Glad there was a fence between you!

Wonderful capture of this guy, Marie! I have been watching him a lot lately at the zoo, but I haven't been successful at getting a good shot. Kudos to you!

Outstanding Marie. I hope he is not licking his lips for you. Well you know what I mean.

Thanks, Cindy, Bonnie, and Darren for the great comments!

Bonnie, how did you know?? I had a huge steak strapped to my tripod! LOL
Actually, I have been known to talk to these guys but haven't resorted to empty promises yet!

Darren, yes I do know what you mean and I have to say that since I was the only one there it was a little uncomfortable - that look I was getting for a moment! Sometimes that ravine doesn't seem all that wide!

Thanks again,
Marie

Wow, quite the fan club you've got! As everyone has already noted, excellent photo! The colours are amazing and the eye contact!...sends shivers done the spine. You do a fabulous job with the fences! At the best of times I get at least some distortion from them...what's your secret?

Thanks so much Eric for the wonderful compliment! In this case, I can't take any credit for getting past the fence obstacle - as this exhibit isn't fenced. There is just a deep ravine
keeping the tigers in! Thanks again!
