Originally posted by Bob Harris enjoyable to series to view, what a shot of the boa you got. Love the tigers, but the mountain lion is my favorite, what eyes they have. TFS, Bob
I also like pumas among the big cats, second only, perhaps, to the clouded leopard. Puma's don't have the massive skull of a lion or tiger, so the face is a bit more "dainty." They're supposed to be the largest cats that purr, but I've never heard one do so. It's a sure thing that the glaring puma here was not purring. Wish I could have used a smaller stop to get the boa's nose in focus as well as his eyes. Tried a small stop (f11) with flash, but the result was way too flat, no texture on the scales, which is what makes part of this image.
