Hi Marc - Nicely captured. I think the cub adds to the story. Getting low under the vehicle certainly paid off here. I'm a little surprised at the slow ss. I usually shoot silhouettes with a bit higher ss to underexpose more. I see a halo/hard edge along the back of the lioness.
TFS,
Rachel

Very nice image, can't add anything other than that. I would love to see it in a A1 print.

I like it very much - I also like the second lion the composition holds well for me.

Nice angle and composition here, good mood.
I think going faster on SS would also have helped the appearance of the sun?

Very Nice! I cant decide if I like the second lion in the shot though, im thinking the distance is perfect but perhaps moving the vehicle forward so the front lion is hiding the back one, you can then frame her on a 3rd for another interesting composition. easier said than done in the wild though i know!
beautiful capture

Hello Marc,
For a change I won't be complaining about SS... Maybe it was an error, but I thought about this a lot and I quite like the softness here, IMO it adds so much to the mood:)
Creative framing from you and I especially like the space you have given the lioness in the FG. I really wish you did not tell us the other one is not a cub, I had this "mother and daughter" scenario in my head
I also like the warmth/colours and those tall grasses touched by the gentle breeze. Overall this frame truly moves me Marc, and I just miss those royal beasts too much...
Kind regards,

That would have been a little problematic, granted that I was actually lying under the vehicle as the BG lion entered the scene.
