Sumatran Tiger
Captive
EOS3, 300F4L IS, Provia 100F, 550EX -2/3.

I do apologise for not posting this earlier. We had new toys to play with :D

After stalking me and rubbing his head against the glass his mate came up behind him and pounced on him. This resulted in the two of them rolling around trying to bite each other's neck. Kids :roll:

Comments welcome and thanks for looking.

Very nice; intimate and yet playful shot. (Took me a while to recognize that's an ear in the lower right!) Small point would be to burn in the eye shine a bit in the one eye.

The vivid colors, intense action and sharp detail are wonderful.

Nice intimate shot! You can probably tone down the little bit of eyeshine.

I love the playful action captured here. This is very well done, Dave. My only minor nit has been mentioned. :)

The colors and action are great! Nicely done.

You could get an interesting and abstract image by cropping to the the two eyes in the upper right hand corner.
