What a magnificent creature! Melbourne Zoo [ https://www.zoo.org.au/melbourne/] on a cold, overcast, winter afternoon. With my Sigma 150-600mm zoom, I looked at Elephants, Snow Leopards, Tigers and Dingoes. The cats were asleep!
I would love to see these creatures in the wild.
Thanks for your view, comments and favs for "Arch"
Fascinating image and capture. He looks very beautiful and serene though I must think he would prefer running around free in the forest than in a cage.
The markings are amazing. There is a YouTube where some folks are riding on an elephant and a tiger leaps so high out of the grass and sways the elephant guide.
