Description

Went back to the zoo and managed to get a few shots of their tiger. It is tough to get good shots because you have to shoot thru glass and there is a ton of glare and reflections in your way. Anyway, I think these few came out pretty well. Hope you agree. :)

Despite the glass you have done very well, detail down to a whisker! I love the pose and composition. One suggestion which you may try: shift the colour away from green (caused by the glass?) just a fraction and see if the warmer colours come out on the fur.

Great capture! Try playing with contrast, saturation, sharpness, etc... in Photoshop to get rid of the haziness from the glass.

I can't see any glare from the glass, but I kind of wonder what he's so happy about :)

How can you tell if it's happy? Fantastic capture through the glass. You did a very good job with wonderful lighting and texture on the big cat. I wouldn't mess around with Photoshop on this one.

Excellent capture, really don't think I would have noticed the glass if you had not mentioned it, even so, just verily. :))

I am not sure if it looks happy or if it is thinking 'humans look good to eat'. Very good closeup
