Lots of action here. Good capture, but I feel it misses something by not showing the face of at least one of the characters. Must have been a pretty exciting few minutes.

Hi Brendon - Another great action image. I particularly like the presence of the spectators in the bg, they add a nice element to the image. You handled the harsher light well. There's a spot of some sort in the tree line straight above the curve of the tail. Very well done overall.
TFS,
Rachel

Very much agree with Bolt.

Hi Brendon, great action and nicely executed. With little time and a raft of things to contend with you did very well. Just wonder if there maybe a bit of red creeping in overall, just looking at the blue of the sky?

Post Production: It’s ALL about what you do with the tools and not, which brand of tool you use.

Thanks very much everyone. Steve i was hoping some one would comment on that, i too thought about the red but couldn't decide, thanks very much.
Eye contact is overrated in images like this. If the lions were looking your way they wouldn't be focused on the prey or task at hand. Being positioned somewhat to the left and having more 'subliminal' eye contact, yes that would have elevated this - though IMHO still a cracking action capture and would love to have it in my files.
