Another view of one of the youngsters at Boskoppie, I crouched down - much to the interest of the others in the group - and took this one to try and emphasis the stately presence of this magnificent cat.

Happy Easter everyone and thanks for the visit.

Hi Tim
This is truly an excellent shot of this young lion. Your low POV adds tremendously to the impact of the photo.
The composition is great and I like the tightish crop. The colours are very natural and the DOF is spot-on with magic facial details and more. The BG is fine and the exposure was superbly handled. WOW I like it.
Good work and TFS.
Regards
Loot

Hi Tim,
I really like that wistful look on that young lion's face.
Super sharp details with very natural colors. The close-up full-frame presentation is excellent.
TFS. : )

Good shot Tim!!!

Hi Tim,

This is a cute lion. You came very close. Great POV, very sharp detailed and good, natural colours.

Hi Tim

An great shot that is well composed, with good clarity and sharpness. Detail is spot on. A big tick for this shot! :-)

Such a majestic shot!
PP work: I would maybe have removed the scare and the 2 flies with a clone brush. But if you prefer to show reallity as it is, you also got a point.
