I enjoy my visits to the zoo and this fine Indochinese tiger is a favorite subject

I used a venerable 200 mm F4.5 Telyt with the M8/Viso on a monopod for this

using vintage lenses with the M8 are a great source of joy & they often can be found for surprisingly little $$$

Arthur,

Very nice. I wish my kids were younger. The two pre-teen boys are now too cool to go to the zoo with their dad even when I tried to bribe them, and they keep me occupied with other things.

Arthur, beautiful capture. I'm not sure if this was more dangerous than your series in Houston, but brave you are.
