A great action capture and one that should have finished much, much higher. Peter, I love it. Congratulations on your top 20 finish.

i don't like the fact that you can't see either tigers face, other than that it's a nice shot

very strong image here, his striking paw has so much tension, well done.

Nice capture. I think this picture could have stood alone without the border though. Nice job.

Good capture overall -- I know that in working with animals you just have to take what you get, but it's a shame that neither face was visible.

This is an unbelievable shot! That tiger getting attacked squinched even. I hope it's just playful demeanor. I have this shot a 7 though. I might have given it a 9 or 10 if you could go for a faster shutter speed to have that pause effect on the paws. Using black and while on this works fairly well, the framing works really good in this composition.
