Wow, beautiful shot!

That is stunning, image clarity is great, I'm wondering what the pic would look like with a black border and white font, I think the black would help make the tiger stripes appear bolder, just a suggestion.

Beautiful shot. Nice timing and wonderful color. I might crop a tiny bit across the top to get rid of some of the dead stuff/dirt clods or whatever that is...

Great shot, I might crop in and make it a portrait if there's enough resolution.

Great colors!

Thanks all! Great ideas about cropping and the border colors. I might have to make me a version two.
Ah, if only I still had my 100-400 when I went to the zoo...100-400 = perfect zoo lens.
