Canadian Lynx (captive)

I was looking for images for this weeks motif and had to post one of my favorite baby animal shots. It was taken 9 years ago on one of my first photo workshops with Joe McDonald. The kitten is 3 months old in this picture.

Nikon 8008s with 300 f/4 on tripod, Sensia 100. Full frame.

Now isn't that the cutest thing you have ever seen....

An excellent shot and one that can clearly hold its own, even now. I look at some of the pics I took only a couple of years ago and they will never see the light of day ever again :roll:

This is excellent Cheryl. Just enough room up top to enjoy those tufts, cute little face, and the little green leaves all come together for a wonderful package.. Top notch!

I'd love to see a bit more room on the left, but beyond that very minor nit, this is fantastic! The background is nicely blurred, and the sharp leaves in the foregorund server to frame and accentuate that adorable little face.

Good job!

What a cutie and what a nice image of her/him.

Well done, as usual, Cheryl.

Wonderful. Love those little tufts and the foliage really adds IMO.
