Renderosity has opened a whole new world to me, its a fantastic place and have had some brilliant support from many new friends.  I retired from work very early through ill health so I took to photography from the very basics.
 Since joining I have grown in confidence with my photography and I now think because of RR that I take it a little more seriously. I started off here using a Fuji Finepix 6500fd, it took some great pictures but I'm hooked now so I have now(April 2008) bought a DSLR SAMSUNG DX10 and having fun learning the settings etc. ( these things take me a while lol)ÂÂ
I am so fortunate to be with a wonderful person in my life, Sylvia. She is not just my partner but of course she's also my best friend. Previously I have been married but seperated a few years ago and have two fantastic children. I NOW have two fantastic grandchildren !!!
My interests are photography, i have had a dabble at Acrylic painting, and I enjoy long walks out in the countryside.      I also have an interest in anything historical.  I want to have a sample of just about everything there is in photography, who knows what the future holds!
Thanks for calling by.    Alan

Wonderful work.

What a beautiful animal Alan and a great capture considering your challenges!! It always breaks my heart to see these majestic beauties behind fences, however, for some species that is vitally important for the continued exsistance of their kind. Have a great Sunday. xx

fantastic capture of the Bengal tiger (i think thats what it is), the colors and pattern are beautiful.

You did very well considering the constraints and capturing the eyes in full view was very well timed.

This would make a wonderful painting! Are you going to give it a go? I'd love to see what you do with this great pose. Beautiful!

You did exceptionaly well Alan, under the circumstances, I couldn't hack those kids, especiallly because of the buggy that I was on. You did good to get his face inside one of the diamonds of the fence, at least both his eyes are open and in focus, if he had stayed a bit further away from the fence you might have been able to blur it out of the shot. I only got one clear shot at him and its the fence in focus and not him. superb work. Bravo!!!!!

Fences are always a problem. The zoos in Holland are trying to use them as less as possible. And the fence on your picture you can hardly see, well done! Wonderful capture!

WOW ! What a beautiful tiger. A really good shot after the circumstances you took them under and the fence does not disturb much actually. Well done. :)

Alan, considering that there was a fence, the limited time you had, plus the school kids this is a remarkable shot. I like the detail in the coat and wiskers of the tiger and the blurred image of the fence actually adds a little to the image. A very nice capture, Sig....

This fabulous close up bears its name wonderfully. A stupendous and majestic portrait of this impressive tiger. Excellent!

It is hard when you have fences in front of you, here in Barcelona most of the animals ( not all )are fenced by only a belt of water. Anyway it is a great shot given the conditions.Wonderful animal !
