The dominant male from the Kusini Kopje pride is on dawn patrol.
I was very pleased when I saw the opportunity that this beautiful male presented me with as it straddled "it's" kopje (rock outcrop) to survey his kingdom!
Tried as best I could to get that tail extended, but it just didn't happen for me on this morning.......musn't grumble :bg3:
With this pride being protected by 4 big males, and (most) of the kopjes themselves being relatively small in height allowing for a much lower POV, this area would have to be one of the best areas to photograph lions on kopjes IMO.:w3
Kusini plains/Serengeti- Nth Tanzania.
D4 80-400AF-S 1/4000s f/5.6 ISO1600@ 210mm. Slight crop for comp, H/H from front pax seat, levels, curves, WB adj + 4% Nik detail to get a sky that resembled what I saw, in PSCC & ACR.
C & C most welcome
Cheers
Marc
