So Goofy

[Richard Waas]

I photographed this tiger at the Metro Zoo making a funny face with my Canon 5D Mk II on tripod. ISO 400, f/8.0, 1/120 sec, EF500mm f/4L IS USM +2.0x extender, 1000mm, Evaluative Metering, Auto Exposure, Auto WB, No Flash. Added Color Efex Lighten Center and Glamour Glow. Comments Welcome......

Hi Richard. I really like the colors and composition. I would be tempted to go a little deeper with the GG filter. The image seems to be on the fence, not quite sharp but not quite "simplified" either. It is very appealing as presented though and I like it a lot!

Richard, I like the expression you caught in the image. nice to see some behavior.
I might crop off the bright spot on the top to put even more emphasis on those great eyes

Hi Mr. Waas,
I like the up close and in your face capture, love the facial expression...would recommend on toning down the hot spot on top and selective sharpening the eyes just a tad...good show...I like it...:cool:

Richard ....what did you do to that animal :D Agree on toning down the lighter top and might try lightening the center, will draw attention right to the place you want it !!!

A very goofy look indeed, I like the crystal blue eyes and the sticking out tongue. Agree that you should do something to the bright area at the top, I might go for tighter crop to put even more emphasis on the goofy face.

Very nice composition, I like that look and the blue in the eyes.

Hi Richard - hmm Goofy all right - agree on sharpening the eyes and toning down the hot spot.
Different look - like it :)
