Well hello there Mr P.

Cute Lion you have here althoung i'm sure you would not say that if it was hungry! Nice detail in the tree and nice positiong draws your eye into the shot perfectly.
Stirling work.

Very nice James...Although the creature would almost be just another among the many if it were not for the capture in this tree....which being me I find almost as interesting:-) It surely brings some patterns to the image..and you being into rocks and geology as such...I am starting to think that we see alike in patterns...in some ways...in this case it makes a very natural frame and perch.!

Hello James,
Great image and moment captured. Look at the belly, she must be sleeping her meal off. Great work James.
Rick

Great shot, James.
You have caught this Lion literally napping and that too on a high location :> !
Do you think they climb up trees for safety?
A well captured moment. I like the dappled BG.
TFS and regards.

Hi James,
A new thing for me that lions can also climb trees like leopards. A nice capture of this beautiful lion. Superb details and a nice composition. Thanks a lot for sharing.

Hi James,
