 Shot of Omar, the white tiger at Singapore Zoo. It was feeding session and the caretakers were throwing pieces of venison from a platform around 20 feet away from them. This guy was perched on a rock and there was another tiger in the pool below him.
Lucky to have caught him so still.

*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*

An interesting image that contributes to the open challenge

Its all in the eyes! You have captured his intense stare well as he waits for his food, what amazingly blues eyes he has, I can imagine being immobilised by those mesmerising eyes just before he pounces on me to make a meal of me, gulp!!! With regard to the image itself I like the way you have composed him at the lower half with space to look up into, though given his pose I think you could have moved him further to the right and also taken a little more care with cropping his left foot, its no big deal but given the space above him it was unnecessary.

Looking at your settings you could have used a lower ISO and still had an easily usable shutter speed. Your DOF is good with the tiger nicely separated from the background. Given the near perfection of the animal himself I keep getting drawn to to the red blister on his foot, I would probably clone this out.

Sorry you didn't get any comments during the challenge I hope this makes up for it, Sid
