I've always dreamt of this kind of shot with Tiger, without any success so far, but the lions obliged me.

Thank you so much for your kind attention & views !

This is excellent Jagdeep. The soft light in their eyes make this special, as well as the upturned eyes of the cub, revealing the whites.

Oh man, Jagdeep! This is an outstanding image...full of warmth, interest and story, while being absolutely perfect on the tech side of things. I also think you could not have created a better/stronger comp in this situation. Good grief, though...300mm?!?!

Awesome.

Not only is this a terrific moment well captured, with superb detail on face and eyes, you have chosen a very strong composition with two animals. Great.
