Hi Roberto! Wonderful captures of the Big Cats under difficult conditions. Face to Face with a Tiger.. well done! Those Lynx certainly look docile, just like the domestic cat sitting on the door mat! Enjoyable album and loved the sunsets too. Thanks for your nice message in my g/b and I now have the second Tasmanian album up.. Best wishes.. Gladys, Western Australia.

Great Cat Captures Roberto..I see you Do have a long reach zoom telephoto..me too! The Canon 100-400IS is Wonderful for shooting the Zoo scenes, but unlike Paul, I use a Monopod! Also, I did shoot on a warm, bright day..almost too bright so the animals were staying in the shade! Shooting the DRebel, so the Great ISO capability of the 20D-30D(next purchase) will make overcast days work out better!! Thanks for sharing these beautiful big cats with us! GB, Ted

<font color='navy'> Hi Roberto, Congratulations on your beautiful featured orchids. I like flower photography, but it is challenge in these pictures that I really enjoy. Animal photography is totally different, especially on a dimly lit day. This is a valiant effort and I empathize with you. I have had these experiences too and my adventures into zoos are now limited to cool sunny days and never without a tripod. Cool sunny days encourage the animals, especially cats, to bask in the sun where they become easier targets. A tripod lets me use the smaller lens openings (requiring slower shutter speeds) for the desired depth-of-field. Of course, if the animal is moving, then the best approach is plenty of shots and a willingness to only keep the very best ones.</font> <font color='green'> Greetings from Florida, Paul</font>

Hello Roberto, great pictures! My favourite is the lynx #8! Considering the season and light it's an unbelievably brilliant achievement! Thank you for sharing, best wishes from Vienna, Vera
