Lion

[Andy Richard]

Rebel XTI, Canon EF100-400mm @ 400mm, ISO 200, F7.1, 1/200 sec, hand-held.

Nice portrait, the soft light and warm colors are great.

Is this a captive lion or ?

To improve the image I would crop out the sky highlight in the upper left corner since the top of the mane is cut off anyway.

Nice lighting fo this portrait. Good detail throughout. The light spots in the BG are a bit dstracting and I would have prefered to see the lion looking more towards the camera. As is the lions eyes are close the left side of the frame looking out of the frame.

A great lion portrait, Andy. Wonderful detail and nice even lighting.

[Peter Buntman]

Awesome powerful looking lion, Great detail and colour and perfect exposure giving such natural colour to him. Agree on the bright spots top left and cropped a bit tight, this needs more space to look into on the left and top. From his size and great condition I would guess captive lion?

[Steve Maxson]

Nice lighting and detail in this image. I would like to see more room on the left for the lion to look into. I like that he is looking out of the frame and not at the camera.
