Bengal Tiger

With Regal demeanor he struts all over his open air pen at Metro-Zoo,
even when he lays down, it is done with utter fines, It's the Cat within!!
And with thousands of images sitting in folders without processing, I always find a need to go out and shoot something, Photography wise that is !!!

The regal look that cats do so well!

Nicely done- I like the open mouth and pink tongue.

A very regal looking tiger! I love the wall as the background here, Alex. This fella had gorgeous eyes. :)

Royalty at its best with this one. Perfect lighting and wonderful detail. You couldn't ask for a better pose....and the palace is all his. Excellent.

I'm not a fan of artificial backgrounds but this one works so well to set the cat off. Looks like he just laid down in from of an Indian temple! Wonderfully done - as usual.
