    Beautiful picture, Allison! What a great catch.

    Thanks for dropping by, hope you have a great WW day!

    Wow! That is so sharp! Did you take this photo, really? I’ve never managed to get a good shot at a zoo, much to my immense frustration. Animals should be such photo-worthy subjects, but I just can’t manage it. You did.

    So come see my animal-like driftwood… this I can manage. Happy WW!

    Wow, I second that - I’ve never gotten good shots at the zoo - which is why we don’t go… The animals are generally too far away!

    Welcome back!! Hope you get back to normal soon!

    I captured my WW butterfly in my own backyard (front yard actually). I was surprised to even see one, let alone that I got it on “film” - well pixels. *smirk*

    Wow, what a beautiful shot! That seems like such a thin piece of fence between you!

    Now that’s one cooool cat. You got the essential element of wildlife photography in this one: the eyes. If you can get those, you’ve got your shot. Nice job focusing through the fence too. Not always an easy task.
    Nicely done, and thanks for stopping by!

    He looks like he might just be used to everyone snapping his headshot. Great post!

    it’s eyes kind of hypnotize. I needed to look away.


  9. on August 20, 2008 at 1:18 am Yen

    That’s a nice shot! I have photos like this when we went to Thailand:D they’re huge!

    Great shot! I love the Zoo! I never get shots like yours because I am to busy looking myself and forget my Camera is around my neck! Oops! Kim


  15. on August 20, 2008 at 5:49 am Richard

    Looks like it’s just biding it’s time and waiting for someone to wander in for lunch…

    Happy WW!


  16. on August 20, 2008 at 6:40 am June

    A nice shot to return on! Happy WW….

    Good shot! Wild!
    I have a wild one too… wild but not caged. :)
    P/S I enjoyed looking at your family pics. You’ve got a cute boy there too.

    I just want to pat him, he’s so pretty!


  19. on August 20, 2008 at 10:10 am Minkydo

    He looks bored. I saw a few bored animals at the zoos I visited this summer. Still fun taking their pics :)

    Happy WW

    He looks so hot, but he’s beautiful.

    Happy WW!

    Wow what a great shot.


  23. on August 20, 2008 at 12:00 pm Jenn

    Beautiful !


  24. on August 20, 2008 at 12:16 pm Randall

    Looks like you caught him just chillin’. Wonderful photo.


  25. on August 20, 2008 at 12:24 pm munchkinsandmusic

    I like the title. Goes great with the picture!


  26. on August 20, 2008 at 12:55 pm Black on Campus

    Beautiful animal… but it also made me feel a little sad to think that some day zoos may be the only places where big cats like this one are safe from poaching and other dangers to their health and habitat.


  27. on August 20, 2008 at 1:55 pm Bodhi

    The wire is vaguely reassuring.

    And thanks for dropping by to my “meet the ancestors” post.


  28. on August 20, 2008 at 2:50 pm Gayle @ The White House

    I want to be so relaxed!


  29. on August 20, 2008 at 2:50 pm Marsha (at JustMe1947)

    They are all just sweet little pussy cats at heart! Right!?!

    What a sweet sleepy baby. Looks so peaceful.


  31. on August 20, 2008 at 3:53 pm gpc

    Such amazing creatures! Nice shot.

    Animals really do have personalities. Often, it’s as though they understand us humans completely.


  33. on August 20, 2008 at 5:15 pm Jumpback

    And not much in a hurry to duck the cameras.


  34. on August 20, 2008 at 8:40 pm Burgh Baby

    Well done! That’s a great shot.

    (Friday! Squee!)
