    Even big cats purr once in a while.

    Hubby and I took the girls to the zoo today, and this tiger was being incredibly cooperative for me.

    Great capture! I love the look on his face, almost like he just had a big whiff of catnip.

    I like the composition, and you caught it at a good moment. Just a personal opinion, I would boos the contrast a tad, it seems a little flat to me (could be my monitor), it would vastly improve if it had a bit more "pop"

    I still like it though.

    Point break...thank you!

    Themage...thanks for your comments, sorry the pose doesn't seem to work for you.

    payn...thanks for the feedback on this...I'm not sure if it's your monitor or not, the contrast seemed okay to me, but I'd be interested to hear if others also say the same! Thanks again.

    Another great image, Emily! He looks almost cuddly. It's quite an unexpected pose for a beast of the wild. He has great posture, dontcha think?

    D, that's what I was thinking was cuddly...lol. Like a person could go up and pat him on the head and he'd purr for ya.

    Thanks for the feedback, all!
