I think I have been in a pano mood lately-judging from my posts the last few weeks. I was looking for some 3 of a kind shots for this weeks motif and found this shot from my green trip in 1997. The cubs are approximately 1 year old and still have some of there 'kitten' rough on the back of their necks.

Nikon N90s with Tamron 200-500 MF 5.6 zoom, Sensia 100, from beanbag on roof of Landrover.

This green trip really provided some excellent photos Cheryl. I have enjoyed them all thru the year.. I really like the fact that they all looked at you at the same time. Decisive moment captured.. Well done!

Wonderful image Cheryl! To get them all so evenly spaced and all looking at you makes for a perfect pano shot. The fact that they are such beautiful animals in the first place helps more than a bit too!! 8) 8)

Great job Cheryl. How'd you get them all to look at you like this? You must have been singing or something :lol: Very cute.
