When I saw this honest-to-goodness tiger just a few feet in front of me, I was struck not just by her fierceness and dignity, but by how really orange she was. Orange is not a color you see too often in nature. The stripes of a Bengal Tiger can be seen on its skin as well as its fur and are as distinctive as fingerprints on a human. I learned that a Bengal weighs between 300 and 500 pounds and lives up to 15 years in the wild. Its roar can be heard almost 2 miles away. Fortunately while we were at the zoo, Amare gave us the silent treatment.
That is what I was going to say..or ask...Is this tiger really that orange? Or did you enhance it in processing? That is super orange! They are such gorgeous creatures.
Saw your thread and had to stop by and say beautifully done; I tried (totally in vain) to do a similar shot; this really shows the magnificence of the beast
