Description One of the five tigers in that cage (their enclosure is sooo small ) having a quick break, even though it was raining a bit that day they seemed to enjoy themselves. They were either running around playing tag or getting some sun when it was out.

Taken through glass which was dirty and scratched, so a challenge to find a good spot and angle on the tigers. It was either through bad glass or tiny bars that would give dark areas on the photos.

Coloured and square frame as it worked best for this shot, I think.

I almost didn't go to the Zoo that day due to the rain, but this shot alone made me glad I did. There is something about the way it rests its head on a leg and is absently staring off at the distance that grabs my attention.

Hope you like it.

Good thing you did go, what a beautiful portrait. I like how you can see the mud on him and the wet fur, looks like they've been playing in the mud

Thank you.

I have one where its head is turned to the left, was a hard choice but I decided on this one. I think it is its favourite spot, I have a full body shot from earlier in the day with a tiger laying in almost the same way.

Between the moat, the rain and the ground they were bound to end up looking like that. But it is one of the things I like in the photo as well.
