Great shots of it and the bear though, the Lion, typically aloof!

I agree entirely with Peter. Excellent images.
Posted: Fri Sep 28, 2007 10:07 amI may be in the minority here... I like #2 and #3, especially the pensive look in #2.
I'd love to see the colour versions (not being a fan of black and white).

You've been posting some great shots of the animals from your latest visit of the zoo.
Most people would just have ignored taking the lion photo but the way you have it and in b&w gives a real interesting take on a much photographed animal, I like it.
#2 of the snow leopard is also very nice wit the eye contact.
As many above, the bear shot is a classic for me,
Cheers,
André

I'll post the colours when I get home from work. Cheers for the comments all.

I don't know if the colour images will add anything to be honest. These just work as a b&w!

Haven't you been listening? RULE OF THIRDS!! RULE OF THIRDS!! They would have been much better if you only had only shown a third of the animal! :
I think that's how it works?

Posted: Fri Sep 28, 2007 5:11 pmI agree with Peter & Bernie! 
#1 has simplicity, but the lighting and therefore the texture makes it wonderful.
It is also unusual(= good!) because the animal has its back to the camera, yet it's obviously a snow leopard / tiger err... lion!
Excellent image.
