Description

Location: Singapore Zoological Gardens

Description: This was photographed at the Jaguar enclosure at the Singapore Zoo during feeding time, and moments before this the group of jaguars were already becoming restless, pacing around and repeatedly getting in and out of the water.

When the feeding began the action was very fast, while the dull lighting and protective glass made photography even more challenging. Many excited children continued to dash towards the glass, trying to get as close to the animals as possible, so I had to 'dodge and shoot', all the while careful not to include them in my photos.

In the end I decided to crop in tightly on a single jaguar and observe it through my viewfinder, and was rewarded with this endearing, dreamy expression.

Tweaking: Photo Filter (Warming 81), Levels and Unsharp Mask.
