Nice close up, great facial detail,

Great eye contact
I think he looks both hungry and disappointed - as if the kid you mention would not make much of a snack

This is such an excellent shot of this tiger. Lovely detail in the fur and face. It's wonderful viewed large.

Thanks everyone for the comments - I'll sort out a closer crop at a more respectible hour this morning.
Sadly Moira, the answer is 'no' although I would love that! Actually I had a book as a toddler that my parents read me constantly at my request called "Tim the Tiger". My love of Tigers has been constant every since - beauty, majesty, and power, all in one, with a large helping of cute when they choose

Rather worrying to be looked at so intently by a large feline, albeit a young one!
A great shot

If I'd got to choose I'd say the tighter crop works better as the stark white background does overpower the image.
Just a thought but have you considered using a gradient mask to add some colour to the sky?
Pin sharp detail though and nice crisp colours.

Thanks for the comment Paul; I loved the young tiger's pose in this shot, but I do agree about the white and it would be lovely if it hadn't been a completely featureless sky.
But I'm fairly certain my editing skills aren't currently up to the task of doing a convincing job of modifying the sky. I'm getting better at adjusting colours etc, happy to clone out small objects and have drifted down the dark side a little with blurring backgrounds on a couple of shots; but my knowledge of layers is almost none.
Something to rectify for certain; but I'm also still having a personal debate of how much to modify a photo where currently the line stops short of adding anything in.
