First of all, thanks to all of you who commented and voted. A very special thanks going out to Gelert who selected it as a favorite.
Creature hit the nail on the head. The blur comes from camera shake and not motion blur. It was a hand-held shot and taken at the local zoo. This guy was actually sitting in the back of his habitat when we showed up, then he wandered out and I swear began posing for all the people with cameras, including a flurry of roars. Perhaps reminders to anyone thinking of jumping the fence to get a closer shot (well, it did cross my mind). In this shot he was actually stretching. I really liked that his hind quarters being in the air made the illusion that he was caught in mid-leap. This shot was my first to score above a 6, so I am very pleased with the results.

| great capture - most zoo shots are pretty placid. if it's not a zoo shot I'll give you an 8 posthumously. |

| This photo creates good tension. Unfortunately not quite sharp with what appears to be lens blur rather than motion blur (going by the streaked look of the OOF background). |

| Wow, what an expression here. This cat is on the move and ready to pounce. I love the motion blur, but the face is still very sharp. Nice picture. |
