Guapo the Jaguar

I watched him have breakfast this morning.
Luckily I was the only one there, so no reflections in the glass.
He was about 8 feet away from me, which is the minimum focusing distance of my 80-400 lens.

1/160s f/5.0 at 175.0mm iso3200 (Photographed through tinted glass. White Balance corrected) full exif

He is handsome. While I'm happy he is "safe" in the zoo, I wish he could roam wild in his native environment.

He is watching you closely when eating the meal.

better that he didn't see you unless you have more meat on your bones than the one he's eating :0) Superb shot
