Eye of the Tiger
Lens: 50-135 Camera: K5II Photo Location: Arizona ISO: 1600 Shutter Speed: 1/125s Aperture: F8 
Posted By: jeffryscott, 10-07-2015, 08:07 PM

Went to the zoo the other morning with my new to me 50-135. The tiger was sizing up potential prey - fortunately there is glass between the two. Cropped from horizontal.

What a great catch, not every day you go eyeball to eyeball with a Tiger.

Just look at that wonderment on the wee lassies face, seen clearly in the refection.

IMHO a truly staggeringly, awesome photograph, well done.

This is a great picture.
I like the colours and the reflection of the child's face in the glass.

What Kerrodown said.

The combination of light sources (reflected from child, reflected from glass and transmitted through glass) is impressive.

A fabulous shot - you did well to catch the moment
