A Few Hours With The Tigers

I spent about 3 hours today at the San Diego Zoo, pretty much all of it in one spot. In between visiting the entire time with my friend Stan, and also with several other Zoo visitors, I did manage to get a few shots of Christopher and Conner, the 20-month old Malayan Tigers.

This turned out to be a particularly good day for closeups, with great light. 

This next shot is not cropped by the way, he was almost too close for my 300mm lens. Probably just a few feet past the minimum focus distance.

Sometimes I get the feeling I'm being watched.
