The last one caught me by surprise as the focus point was slightly off.

Beautiful shots, I love the eyes in 3. I think the tiger scared your camera's auto-focus in 4.The expression overshadows the slight OOF anyways. 1/160 might be motion blur?

Thanks Rick & Adam
Adam - I think you may be right about blur, I had the lens hood pressed up against the glass and he kind of jumped towards the glass and I flinched.

Great shots. He looks like he had his eyes on you the whole time.
