Eye on You by Sam Rua


17 October 2010	Sam Rua

A young male Bobcat came over to our yard for a hunting visit and a drink.
He wasn't real happy with me (unintentionally) chasing off his menu items.

Opportune situation and timing with this beautiful wildcat; deluxe lighting and focus. Right on!

Wow! That's pretty cool! How big was this and how big do they get? Great capture~V

OMG, Sam! What a great shot this is! Do you get bobcats often in your yard?

Guest		19-Oct-2010 01:02
Wow, amazing catch! I like, in the composition, how the partial obscuration of the bobcat's face by the fountain (as well as the watchfulness in the cat's eyes) makes the bobcat appear shy and cautious.

Nice sharp shot, Sam. You were very close.

Walter Otto Koenig		18-Oct-2010 14:57
Great catch. He probably didn't like the flash either.
