 I like the zoo. I had so many pics to choose from, but I really think this one is the best.

Photoshop was quite extensive in this, but quite a good learning experience I must admit. There were a lot of steps, so I am not going to list them, but if anyone wants to know, just send me a message.

Good shot, I would suggest a couple of things to make it a great shot. First shooting in midday sun, I would have converted this to b/w. Second crop WAY in on the tiger so he is the main and ONLY subject in the shot. The plants on the right really distract from this big cat. Good luck!

The lion looks great! I might have cropped the bushes on the right off, thus putting him off center, but that's just me.

Cropping to Rule of thirds would help this good picture
