Description
This shot took a hell of a lot of work to save but I think it was worth it. Poor, diminishing light and intrusive mesh fencing almost beat me!Siberian tigers, mother and cub.
Note: A heartfelt THANK YOU! to everyone who has added this piece to their favorites. I'm overwhelmed by all the feedback and wish I could personally thank each and every one of you!

On your ribs? Ouch! I have a giant howling wolf tattoo on my back, that was painful enough, I don't think I could stand one on my ribs

I was so proud of myself because I didn't cry. I apparently made some pretty terrible faces though lol. I got a blue rose on my left shoulder and didn't feel anything but tingling in my hand, so I figured it wouldn't be so bad, I was wrong. It was like an hour and a half for thee tiger,

Oh yeah, it was worth it! i had so much trouble with my film sometimes and it pissed me off so much and I was frustrated because I had a good shoot with that roll. I ended up fighting with my film because someone in a previous class decided to mix some chemicals thinking they were the same *cough* freshman*cough* my film came out orange- ish D: but I saved it with a 20 sec plunge into the stop bath. My best picture of that year was on that film XD. Don't you love the feeling of success after everything was going wrong?

Beautiful picture. And thanks for not putting an ugly watermark all over it. It really takes a lot away when certain other artists do it to their's.

In one word : awesome !
It's a excellent shot and the cub is so cute. However, I think the mother is angry because their ears are pull down.
Congratulations for this shot.

omg they're gorgeous! I think tigers are the most beautiful animals in the world along with snow leopards, pumas, white tigers, and panthers.
