Description

Hello All! Was drawn to this pair of loving tigers are nuzzling up romantically under the falls . I always try to shoot for something that tells a story ... So wonderful always to watch the way animals interact so tenderly and affectionately with one another. These big beautiful cats always do remind me -with their mannerisms -of house cats just on a larger scale (uhm nope- wouldn't want them as a pet though lol). Taken at full zoom . Minimal post work on this one. Thought about smudging the falls for a softer look but decided to leave it as is as I liked the blue behind the droplets contrasting with their orangish fur. Mike is back from his Dad's funeral in Michigan flew into LA in late last night so a bit sleepy today need coffee... yep the strong starbucks kind !! Thanks for your time and comments and your words of comfort meant so much to us!! Love to you all!!! ((( BIG HUGS ))) ~ Kimmers !!! ♥ :O)

Oh... I love this. Excellent! I just showed your "chimps" picture to my best friend earlier and he (a very cynical and picky person) was "amused" by it. (That's equal to "great praise" coming from him! lol!). I will have to show him this one too. Great work. Thanks for not overdoing the post work... I think you made the right decision there. Li

How strong a symbol the tiger makes and yet so affectionate in this photograph. Spot to have left it as is. I am glad things gradually returns to normal in your home. Good luck Kimmers!

Nice capture. I had no idea tigers were affectionate. I agree with your choice to leave the falls as they are :)

beautiful work as ever Kim, you certainly are an eloquent story teller with a lens.. the colours are striking, nicely saturated but not too much.. great job on this!
