Shame on Viewbug for allowing entries such as this into a "PET" category. Why is that ok? It is not. Members that play by the rules are curious and angry about this. Speak up those of you who agree with me. Contests should be fair - or why bother. This photo is cute. But in a wild animal category. IS anybody awake over there in the judges box? You're going to lose people by continuing to allow this. If you're not going to pick winners fairly then don't even have a contest. The next time you have a sea creature contest I'll be posting a photo of my house.

Behind The Lens

Location
Calgary Zoo, Alberta, Canada.
Time
winter morning after the zoo opened, around 9:30am
Lighting
Cloudy day which is ideal for shooting through the wire fence. ISO 1600
Equipment
Canon 7D Handheld, Tamron 70-300.
Inspiration
Three young cubs were born a few months earlier, two of the cubs played for a while then got tired and wandered back to bed. This cub was just not having any past of bed, he explored everything in the compound and wanted to continue playing. Mom was okay for a while, but she started to get tired and tried to send a message that she was done playing, the cub didn't really get the hint so she had to get more serious about saying no. This photograph was captured right about the time that she let him know she was done. I think I like this picture mostly because I was in that position when I was a cub, maybe we have all been.
Editing
Lightroom 5, cropped and minor adjustments.
In my camera bag
Canon 7D, Fuji X100s, Leica Dlux-6, Canon L 70-200, Tamron 70-300, Lumu pro light meter attachment and app.
Feedback
Shooting through the fence at Zoo's can be tricky. This particular zoo has very dark black wire, that is actually better than light coloured wire which is harder to get out of the frame. Cloudy days are also better or to be in the shade, direct sun on the fence will make it lighter and is more likely to show up on the image. Watch for the animals to be far away from the fence while you are as close as possible, this will allow you to focus through the fence and make it disappear. There is no chance of getting the shot when the animals are close to the fence
