My favorite subjects at the Memphis zoo are the big cats. I thought I'd post some of my favorite pics of them. All of these were taken with a Canon 30D and a Canon 200mm f/2.8L.

Jun 13, 2009 08:07 | #9 #3 should be printed large,framed and hung on your wall. #3 is a Great image, there is one thing that draws my eye in the pic and that is the OOF paw, it is not enough that it would keep me from printing large and hanging it, though.

Number 3 makes me think "awwwww" and #1 makes me think "holy....!" I loved the pose too, but it's time to tell the reason for that pose. As you can tell by most of the other tiger images, their compound has all the water they could possbily want.

As you can tell by most of the other tiger images, their compound has all the water they could possbily want. For some reason, the girl in the first pic was licking dew off the grass - you can see a drop of it on her chin. This is the first exhibit I visited that day and I checked back just before leaving, and she was still licking the grass. I'll never understand females!  That's just proof that a photo doesn't tell the whole story! I never would have guessed that's what's going on in a million years. I still love the photo though. 5D4 w/BG-E20, 24-105 f/4L, 70-200 f/2.8L IS II, 35 f/1.4L, 85 f/1.8, 100 f/2.8L IS Macro, Sigma 50 f/1.4

Thanks, Mark. If a photo is supposed to evoke some type of emotion in the viewer, then the first shot did it's job.
