I just saw one of the major retailers doing a Revel T5i on Black Friday sales...

Id look at the Canon Rebel line, but I'm a Canon man. Stick to Canon or Nikon SLRs and you'll be in a good place.

Man, that tiger is awesome. Maybe it's just me, but I think if you'd have gotten the screw in a little better focus it'd have tied it together better.

Good pics though. Seriously.

Thanks.

Yeah, I mistakenly focused more on the post... :-/ I still dig the pic though.

Long lenses are a must. Crop sensors are friends for wildlife photographers. And you get what you pay for in glass.

I'd cool the green in the background down some as it catches my eye too easily.

It's personal taste, but my eyes bounce between the eyes and nose. When they hit the nose the green in the background, I believe it's grass, tries to nab my attention. The blown out white to the left of his hip is distracting as well but it's far enough away it is less distracting.

It's a great photo and it's nit picking, but if I'm going to hang it in my house and look at it all the time I have to eliminate the distractions or I'll notice them every time I walk by it.

Interesting observations. I'll play some in Lightroom.

The blown out white is a small pool of water. I should be able to bring that down some.

From an emotional, rather than purely aesthetic, standpoint. the strip of green in the background warms the shot by hinting that the tiger is living in verdant surroundings.

The tiger is awesome too. Would dodge the foreground grass a touch before printing..

So you think dodge the grass to lighten it up?
