Here are a couple I took in CO - Lions at Denver Zoo, leopard at Cheyenne Mountain. It is amazing how these big predators can seem really sweet - and almost cuddly : )
C&C welcome! Thanks in advance for any comments :)

Thank you for the nice comments!
Rob - The snow leopard was one of my first pics - thanks for the comment on the composition. I am still learning all that stuff :D
And Mom - I see you are a CO photog too! Do you ever shoot at either zoo?

These are great, but I'll always say that about big cats. ;)

Seriously, good shots.

I really like the first one. The second one is amazing as well, but I would not call it cuddly lol.
