Spent a very enjoyable day at the WHF big cat sanctuary in Kent yesterday where you are allowed right up to the cages and can put your lens through the wire to take photos (and in the case of the smaller cats go inside the cage). I'd highly recommend it to anyone interested in big cats.
All the attached photos were taken with the 60D + 55-250mm combo.
Any C&C appreciated.

Thanks

Nice pics.

Btw, when you say you can enter into the cages of small cats wont the cougar or wild cat attack?
 
Thanks for all of the comments.

We were only allowed in with the Serval (pics 3 &4) but it pretty much ignored us as the guy taking us round was had a bucket of meat & kept feeding it.

That is a stunning shot!

Please tell a bit more about the setup?

Thanks.
 
I was a little super shots, I was a little surprised how good the 55~250 performed for you.

Impressive.

--Re The Black and White. I really liked that.

One thing a wildlife photographer that I know does with pictures like that is go back and replace the color in the eyes. And, then sells canvas prints (2'x3') for several hundred $$$.
 
@Dannyboy292, thanks for the comment - glad you like them. Personally I prefer no. 2
