Picture of the Week 16.12.08

[Geoff]

My last POTW of the year!

This week it goes to Darren (kiwifamily) for his fantastic image of the tiger at Auckland Zoo. I liked all (4) in this series but this one stood out because of the amazing detail..we can even see the texture on the cat's tongue!!

Anyway, here's the pic:


And here is the original link.

Congrats to Darren and Merry Christmas to everyone on the forum, from myself and Bel.

Great choice Geoff and congrats Darren, wonderful image. I haven't been able to spend as much time on the forums as I would like and I had missed this one.

As mentioned, the whole set is awesome.

Cheers,

André

No, no, no, Chris. That's not an image of Geoff. He doesn't have quite as many teeth left.

Nice choice, Geoff. Nicely taken, Darren.

Congratulations! It is certainly a beautiful picture - all of the set are!

Thanks again. It's 95% full frame too which is nice.

Great shot and well deserved POW. There is a slight cyan cast through the image on my monitor and adding about 30 red using PS's colour balance tool seemed to correct this. Is anyone else seeing the cast or is it my monitor??

[ATJ]

A fantastic image - you've got to love cats. :)

Matt, I see the colour cast, too.

Thanks. Will see about the cast too.
