There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Remember that it is all relative, compare a lion or tiger on their side with a human being next to them for scale and you see their true size...
Like the dead tiger from Nepal that I posted.

Its all about angles, put a large animal in front and smaller human behind them and they look massive, move further behind them and that makes them appear even larger, get down on a knee, turn a different direction, uneven ground, etc. All of these will play a role in deceiving the viewer which is why so many of us prefer video to picture.

One of my favorite pictures
