[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
If you look closely at the ears you can get a feeling for the rough life this lion leads. The Cuts on the ears are made whilst chasing prey through heavy scrub. You can also make out a very large tick on the right hand ear.

I hope you like the post.

Hi Paul

Running late this morning, but enough time to see that this is an excellent post. Good POV, clarity and details. TFS.

You captured the intensity of this young male lion, focusing at something, probably some kind of prey, very well. TFS
