IMHO Siberians (Amur) tigers are the most regal of all. This big guy was nice enough to pose at the Minnesota Zoo.

I agree. Amur tigers are indeed the most regal. Nice portrait, but I would have liked a better look at the eyes. They are a bit dark. Thanks for sharing.

Ditto Jerry's comments. A regal portrait of a regal subject. Sweet.

Hi John,

No argument that this is a very regal subject. Tough mottled lighting but I think you handled it very well. Nice that this captive scene contains no obvious signs of the hand of man.

Cheers...thanks for sharing this...
