Look at the size of the front paw on that thing!
And to think they're the smallest of the Tiger species.

That's an amazing shot.
It's rare to see him move, much less perform like this. This photo's a keeper for sure.

I think you should go back and take the shot again, this time make sure the subject gives you eye contact...

Nice shot Fozzi, I would like to see this cropped in portrait orientation with just the front half of the tiger showing.

Great timing on the shot, the lighting is great, also has a studio feel to it! I agree with Ozi on the portrait crop idea, I found myself looking for his tail which is chopped off, is this full frame or cropped already? With the prime your composition is probably a bit limited.
What was he jumping towards and for?

That really did turn out well. Looks even better on the big screen.

Great Shot Fozzie.
A man of patience to get a shot like that.
