It seems that I have difficulties to make my mind - therefore both has to be as great! Loving the light in both of these..

Re: Exhibit your B&W shots
At the tiger park in Phuket, Thailand. There are three cardinal rules at the tiger park. Always stand behind the animal, never in front (attack mode), never make a sudden move (lest its instincts kick in) and never stray from the handlers.
I was caught up in taking close up of a sleeping tiger, and see it open eyes through my view finder and the next thing
I realize is that I broke 2/3 rules. No handler within 25 feet, I am standing right in front of the tiger 3 feet away. It took me
all my self control to not run but move slowly. Longest 25 secs. in my life. I almost required a change of undergarments at that moment of realization.

Great portrait Sury - glad to be able to look at it through the monitor - I bet the real thing was just a bit too real!
A case of Crouching Sury, Sleeping Tiger, no doubt

Re: Exhibit your B&W shots
Andy, thank you and LOL on your reference to the movie.
Perhaps, I should use it as a title of the shot.

Re: Exhibit your B&W shots
Good one Richard. I thought you had one of those trick lenses on that Sony for the selfie.

Nicer picture Richard,. I particularly like the one dipped shoulder making that diagonal across the frame.
