Puma by padlock

Puma

Couldn't resist another shot from my Big Cats day as I was engaged helping disabled people cycle today with the Easy Rider Charity at Stanborough Lake Welwyn Garden City. Made me think how I see there world from the outside a little like this cat looking at me-what did he think!! It was very humbling experience for me and made me thankful for not only myself but my whole family being fit and able.

Did get a blossom shot but this was Pear Blossom on my other album. Thanks as ever for the support and views-much appreciated
They have such amazing faces, this is a great shot. With a seriously disabled young nephew your words struck a chord. I think we as a family have learned so much and definitely see our lives from a different perspective now.

@paulaw Thanks for the comment, we do take a lot for granted which made me think today. Keep smiling

A great portrait, Padlock. He looks very serious - perhaps he wishes he was elsewhere.

Gorgeous shot and great detail. Some people have such hard things to deal with and just get on with it. It does make you think.

He doesn't look so impressed ...! Beautiful cat though - clearly very proud. I was lucky enough to get tickets to the Paralympics (on my birthday!!!!) and it was such a humbling experience to see what they Could do rather than what they couldn't. (See my Aug 31st shot if you're interested)

@filsie65 totally agree and I have looked at the photo you suggested. These guys and others still and will always amaze me

@padlock Gosh that was quick! I was about to tag you on it to save you searching! It was actually an advance-notice-hint of when my birthday is! (I'm such a baby!) Seriously, I can't imagine how anyone could run 1500m blind.... my eyesight is turning blurry and already I'm saying 'I can't do xyz any more...'

@filsie65 aaaah very neat re birthday- to subtle for me. Agree re those runners , my only claim to fame is helping the blind at archery. What is worse they won!!!!
