Motif: Lion Lunch, Kenya

[Gus Hallgren]

Hi Folks:
Here's a photo Gina took on her trip to Kenya, Africa of a Lion with a Wildebeest.
She was close enough to hear the Lion crunching the bones as he was eating. Gina,
of course safely photographing from a Guide vehicle. It was a trip of a lifetime.

All CC's welcome . . . Uncle Gus

Hi Gus, what a great experience and I'm guessing Gina relives it with this photograph! In the best of all worlds, the lion could/would have turned to look at her. Thanks for sharing.

Well Uncle Gus,
We know this lion was not sleeping tonight...:eek::p;):):D This is great. I like this capture; a display of true behavior and habitat. I hope he was full...:D

Must have been a sweet trip and one I hope to do one day !!!

Love the image as presented Don't mind the direction the lion is looking in since he is obviously concentrating on something important to him. Would like more room in the direction he is looking if you have it !!!

You did very good with the light. I know most of the time is on the harsh side. The inside of the leg is at the ragged edge!!! Excellent and I like it a lot !!!

Thanks for looking at the Lion behaviour and his capture, will post another photo of same kill in 24 hours . . . .
Appreciate your CC's and kind words . . . Uncle Gus & Gina.

Hi Al:
Found the original, gave it more room as you suggested, and left colour (More natural) alone. I think it looks much better ??. . . Uncle Gus :D
