[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Serengeti plains, moving to Ngorongoro Crater. We were observing group of lioneeses sleepy laying along the road. One came to the other two and each other were greeting by heads and then this two start to play! Incredible scene, two big lions playing like kittens. I would not like to join.

From Wikipedia:

The lionesses are the hunters for their pride and execute their skills with precision and complex teamwork. Each lioness develops specific skills for her role in the hunting techniques used by her pride and, generally, assumes that role during most hunts.

Hi Lenka, very good composition of this intimate meeting of the two lionesses. Postioning of the two is very good, with the two heads right in the sweet spot of the shot, so all else is ignored. The two are in excellent sharp focus with very good colour.

Thanks, John

Lenka,

A very good pic of the animal interaction. The clarity and detail in the image is great and sharp too. I love the Lion pics and have posted some myself. Keep up the good work.
TFS,
Sheriff
