Hi There
Took part today in a photographic visit to the Wildlife Heritage Foundation organised by OPF moderator John Nevill.
A group of 13 photographers had special access to the big cats and could get right upto the wire, under suitable supervision of the foundation staff. It was a very enjoyable with lots of opportunities to get shots of big cats impossible at normal zoos and parks.
I post below 4 shots taken of the cats.
As always comments and critiques welcome
