Wow, I am truly honored by the votes of appreciation for my tiger photo. Really, the tiger did all the work and I was just privileged enough to be there and capture his/her fun. I will say that the long heavy lens certainly did help quite a bit, in no small part because the other tourists, upon seeing the large lens and heavy camera body, made room for me to get in and photograph the playful tigers. To all those anonymous souls, I do thank you for that courtesy.

shooting data --
Exposure: 1/400 f7.1 ISO 320
Camera: Canon 1D
Lens: Canon 100-400mm f/5.6L IS @220mm
Flash: none
