Tiger Wood
I took this photo of the tiger at Zoo Montana, in Billings (Montana). I combined it with this old wooden siding to create “Tiger Wood”.

Nikon D300, 70-300 mm lens
Converted and combined in B&W with Photoshop Elements 7.

Donna Ridgway replied
lol, thanks Maxy. I put this background here for the textures and lines, then I thought, tiger, wood, and got to laughing over it. :)

This is good humor, just love Tiger Wood, you are so funny!!!!
Donna Ridgway replied
You know, I put this together, and the title didn’t come to me, so I thought I’ll just call it, Tiger-Wood, then it came to me what I was thinking. lol

Perfect title for this one Donna and such a stunning image in black and white! Love the textures and patterns.
Donna Ridgway replied
Thank you Cathy! Is your avatar one of your “Tigers?” lol
Cathy Lewis
She used to be Donna, this is Nippy, who is showing her much (and seldom seen lol) softer side in the photo that got featured. Doesn’t look like the same cat huh? This one shows her TRUE nature…evil and crazy! :-D
Donna Ridgway replied
