We went to Bandon, Oregon this weekend, as I wanted to get pix of the seastacks in the ocean around there.  The weather was stormy, so I didn't get what I wanted of the sea.  We went to this West Coast Game Park, and these bengal tiger cubs were about my favorite animals there.  They participate in a breeding program for zoos.  

My next purchase needs to either be a flash or a f/1.4 type of faster lens.  I fought low light problems the whole time, and this was the best I could do with these adorable little guys.  Any recommendations?

I don't know if these are birch or aspen -- I'm thinking birch.  We don't have much, if any, aspen around our low-lying country.  I'm dying for some of those lovely fall aspen shots for my portfolio.  This is about all I can get of even the birch 'cuz, doggone it, they're always around buildings or ugly industrial stuff!

In Photoshop I made a copy of the background layer and changed the Blending Mode to Screen, then played with the opacity a bit to lighten it. After that I used the Flood filter for the reflection. Voile -- art!

Okay, I think I'm satisfied with this version, tho it's nothing like it would have been on a beautiful day (which we won't have another of till the colors are all gone -- grrr!).  Thanks for your help  :-)
