Lion Profile

[Sanjeev Aurangabadkar]

An image made at Masai Mara in 2013. Wish the part of another lion was not there but still the pose, details and clean BG make up for it I assume. Thanks for looking and commenting. Almost FF, slight crop for comp.

Hi Sanjeev - Nice profile portrait for the theme with good detail and sharpness. I agree with you about wishing the other lion wasn't there. If this were mine I would drop the reds by about 20 in a HSL layer. As posted I feel it looks a bit too orange.

TFS,
Rachel

Thanks Rachel. Will drop the Reds a bit.

Hi Sanjeev, quite a nice side profile of the lion with good detail and a clean BKG, although not having the other body in view would have been better. With a very relaxed pose, what would have been nice is to have moved position after taking this and have gone more head on. Often shots are taken and they move on rather than looking at other options, then moving on.
