We don't have lions and tigers (do have bears!), but we do have bobcats and mountain lions. Still looking for a mountain lion but did get a great chance to photograph a bobcat at Lake Los Carneros in Santa Barbara County. These cats are capable of taking down an adult deer in a single pounce!
I had to shoot through some pretty dense grass, so I couldn't back up or get more habitat in the frame. Worked the image in CS4 after converting in LR2. Cropped a bit to eliminate some OOF grass.
50D, EF400mm f/5.6
Manual mode, f/5.6@1/500, ISO 400 WB 5100K
AI Servo autofocus, HH, no flash
Thanks for looking!
