Thanks for the welcome back and the kind comments and votes on the Courting grebes - I apologise for their quality but as said grab shots and it was all over in seconds.
Today are two shots of the Amur tiger I took at the big cat shoot the wife kindly gave me for my 70th birthday. I hope you enjoy them as I did taking them.

Two lovely images with great colour and detail. I especially like V1. He/she looks so dignified and sunk deep in thought.

I see we are of the exact same vintage, Ray: you have managed a more exotic shoot though than I ever manage, and so well captured at that.
Very fine captures of this magnificent big cat.

Sorry Ray, I have been a bit hit & miss lately & this was obviously a miss for me (not you!!) These are two lovely clear shots & lucky you for having that shoot day for a present. One I wouldn't mind if the family read this!!

Great shots Ray. If you love wildlife have a look at the Wingham Wildlife Park - their photo days are very good value and not too far from Smarden. You get to go in the enclosures with some of the animals, great fun. Grin

Love the head markings on this Tiger that have been superbly captured in this shot. You kept your 70th birthday undercover Ray - otherwise I would have sent you a birthday card!!
