Excellent backlit lion Ken !!! Love the mood captured by the precise exposure The second oof animal sure adds to the image particularly with his gaze toward the camera !!! Sure wish you had that paw in frame !!! Excellent image !!!
Here is another from the same sighting, featuring paws but not such a good background partner.
I liked the first one better. Just that the paws are clipped in the first one. But the side lighting makes the picture. In the second picture, the looks are not as intense. Also I would have prefered a tight crop in the second picture.
