Nice shots, i like specially #4 and #9
Did you shoot through glass? all the photos have some sort of greyish layer to them. Looks like shot through dirty class or so.... contrast and punch are missing.... its more apparant in the series of the jaguar than the tiger....

e jaguar pictures are taken through glass.. whereas the tiger pictures are shot without glass in between.
for e pics., try not to crop off details of the subjects.. like for #1 and #3, e ears are cropped off and #2 has e whiskers slightly chopped off too. personally i wld prefer a landscape style for #4 and #5.. great moment for #4. i had captured a similar moment ages ago.. do have a look here.

Yes it was shot thru dirty glass unless they drill a hole so I can place my lens

Thanks for your comments Yeah you're right, landscape style would be better for #4 & #5. Ok, I'll try again next time. All my pics are 100% crop, didn't change orientation fast enough. Saw your "similiar moment", if it had shown more of the eyes, it would've been a masterpiece I dunno why I tend to crop ears off animals. Probably they aren't important to me in the composition
