Geeeesh that last image of Olive is one to give goosebumps buddy, what a stunning cat.

There is a large amount of cool spots and whiskers here and some giant cats to appreciate for their power and beauty. You had one heck of a season and we all benefitted from that by seeing your work.
Just short of 50 images here and that I am sure just is a trickle of the flood you are holding back on!

I just am wondering about the bird in #2 center left......
#13 is my favorite
#17 and #20 make me hope this one overcame adversities to...Show more →
Karl, your are the best. Who would even see that long tailed black smudge. If the pix were from Africa I would say a magpie shrike but since its not I call it a Long Tailed Smudgee (I wouldn't try Googleing that

) Your faves are among mine as well and the image of Olive remains my most treasured photo...of her and any other wild animal.
Now, back to you! Your gentle nudges, nits, encouragements, tutorials etc. etc. have been invaluable in whatever growth you perceive in my work. Without people such as yourself I would still be languishing making the same mistakes and moving laterally rather than forward. I don't pretend to be anything more than a mid-handicap photographer but I know with continued support and guidance I can get down to single digits....thank you my friend.

Wow!! That is an incredible set of cats Eric! Enough good stuff for a post a week for close to a year. Very enjoyable, interesting, and all excellent quality. Bravo+.
Thanks

I just love these guys, (as if you couldn't tell already) and even with all these, I still get po'd at myself for the ones I missed.

That is one fine gallery of big cats Eric! You have outdone yourself! Almost impossible to pick just one or two favorites.
Thanks so much Jim...it's actually interesting for me to see them all in one thread...until you do you don't really realize the magnitude of what was seen.

Thanks greatly for these and all your other posts, Eric.
There's something freeing about having so many images to look at and appreciate: no need to pick a favorite because there are too many "faves" here.
Although I think the leopards are probably the prettiest of the wild cats- the jaguars have a chunky-strength look to them. I guess if you're going to kill the occasional caiman or anaconda- brute strength and size are more important than being svelte and able to climb trees.
I'm looking forward to more from your closet.
Charlie
Much appreciated Charlie as is your never ending ability to pump up my ego! I agree with your assessment of the leopard vs. jaguar....the sleek leopard and the powerful juiced up jag...both amazing animals but with very different body types.

These are all simply exceptional! Your shots are always such a pleasure to view!
I've already forwarded this post to my wife who is a Docent at The Philadelphia Zoo, and the "big cats" have always been her favorite.
2013 was definitely one of your best years, and I'm looking forward to seeing images from your 2014 travels.

Chris
Chris, you are too kind! Thanks so much for passing these to your wife...we are in Philly quite a bit as our daughter is in med school there. Haven't been to the zoo yet but we have to do it sooner than later.

These are marvelous Eric...always enjoy looking at your big cat shots...get to see such great images of animals I know I most likely will never get to take pictures of...but I can imagine just seeing yours...thanks for sharing.
Thanks Scott...I always count my lucky stars and never take these opportunities for granted. I do hope you find a way to get some shots of these guys even if you don't fly 18 hours to do so.
