Sumatran Tiger Portrait

I took this picture at a Big Cat Sanctuary in Kent with a company called Wild Arena.
The fact that there were about 10 photographers only in the whole Park meant that we had more time to do what we wanted and we were not restricted by 2 barriers, we could poke the camera through the wire.
I wanted a tight composition on that tiger as I found him incredibly beautiful and I did not want anything on the picture that could remind people of captivity.
