Picture of a white Tiger taken in the Olmense zoo in Antwerp..I realy like to look at these big cats .just cropped and framed , also adjusted the levels a little ..

some details.

White Tigers are magnificent creatures that possess an amazing combination of spectacular beauty and impressing power. Bengal tigers, as they are sometimes called, have blue eyes, pink nose, and creamy white fur covered with stripes of a chocolate color.
White tiger males range in length between 8.8 and 10.2 feet. They weigh between 419 and 569 pounds on the average. Females are smaller, and range in length from 7.11 to 8.7 feet, weighing around 350 pounds.

White tigers are very rare animals. They are seen only in zoos nowadays. These animals are sometimes mistakenly considered to be an albino species of tiger. However, it is not true to fact. White tigers occur when both tigers that mate carry the gene for white coloring. A White tiger's tail reaches the length of 3 to 4 feet.

Have nice weekend !!

Nicely shot Leon. Great pose by the tiger, and good composition. The note is alos very informatyive - they are great animals and wonderful to look at. TFS, Sam.

Nice shot of this big fellow, it doesn't seem like he's worried about anything.

Magnificent animals they are - and it's a crying shame for mankind that they have no natural habitats left! Excellent picture/title combination, Leon. Alas, they don't have anything interesting (tiger-wise, that is) to do than to ly down and sleep all day.
Excellent light with the tiger perfectly exposed while the other parts of the picture are darker. Compo is spot on!
TFS.

"I'm bored. I'm tired! All I want is a bit of spark in my life!!"
I love your white tiger Leon. I saw a very interesting TV show once about 5 white cubs that were being raised in a Zoo. They were so cute.
You've caught this fellow so well, a good job, thank you.

What a lovely creature. Lions and tigers are two of my favourite animals. I love the relaxed pose. Reminds me of how Tinka lays like that on a shelf. The lighting is very good, and the dark background makes a good contrast.

Hi Leon, Good composition for this beautiful white tiger. Maybe sleeping off a big meal perhaps? Good cropping which makes this dramtic. TFS. Murray.
