He looks as though he is about to say something, I wonder what happened next?

This is a very nice picture of a majestic animal, you've captured the expression well.

Nice shot. Good portret.

I am reading a book about portrets and they recon the trick is in the eyes. The eyes is what communicates to the viewer. You have captured the eyes well, it gives the shot personality.

Well captured and TFS

Great shot and great expression!
Wellcome to TN. A very good first post and the most important thing for me is that this is not from a Zoo!

Best regards, Petru
