Took these with a sigmae 70-300 APO macro.

Can't go wrong with these amazing creatures can you.

I love this one for his serious expression. You have a feeling if you were in with him at that moment you would be lunch.

They were taken at Dudley zoo.

The enclosure is more like a big pit with a small fence around it that has big gaps. It's perfect for photography as you have no cage wires or glass to contend with. The only downside is they are a little further away so a long lens need to be used.

The first one rocks, although the background on the left is a tad distracting.

Nice shots. I didn't think they had any big cats at Dudley. That's another trip scheduled then. :thumbs:

Cool! Did the Zoo thing with my 4 year old in Edinburgh yesterday, interesting!

No tiggers there but now I know how difficult it is to get a clear shot of an animal I can only appreciate these more. Very well done :thumbs:
