[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Picture of a wild lion taken in the Waza National Park in North Cameroon. At that time I was working around the park to find groundwater that could be extracted (well). The purpose of those wells was to fix the population and to avoid them to go in the national park.
To drill a well can take some time so I had a chance to look for animals in the park.

Picture taken with a Nikon F2 and a 200 mm lens … quite close!

Hi Detay,
Welcome to TE (only been here a few days myself!). Nice shot, well composed, shame the focus on his face is slightly off, still a really nice shot though.
