[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I came across this pair of lions in the Ngorongora Conservation area, south of the Serengeti. They were busy mating and during the course of the hour that we spent with them they mated three times. This mating pattern will carry on for days at a time. In this photo the lion has decided that it is time again and he is starting his amorous approaches.

Hello Mike,
Uncommon photo, great light and brown colours whole of photo.
Best regards, Pawel

Hi Mike,

That pair looks happy ! This is a quiet scene, it's interesting, but maybe with a little more colors, it would have been better. I'll try a WS, hope you'll like it. Thanks for sharing this kind picture, regards from France !
