"Family Portrait"

Description

After shooting these three male Siberian Tiger cubs for the past eight months, I was finally able to get a shot of the whole family together.

The reason that it's one of my favorite photos is the way that the three cubs surround their mother as if they are protecting her, plus each one of them has a different stance, sitting, standing and lying down.

Lens: EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM

Camera was hand held.



Exif: F Number: 6.3, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/500 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 200, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 70.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 7D
