    Good interaction and perfect eye contact Haim. Two things I would have changed on the composition. Since the lions are walking left to right, more room from them tot he right edge as opposed to the left side would balance the image better. Secondly, images taken after this one would not have the merge with the older ones rear end and the green bush.

    Since they are walking towards you and I am betting this is not the only image you made, you probably have that one.

    Agree with Robert re comp, however it just looks a tad too yellow, even for the light & lions. Slight play in colour balance, levels & curves would hopefully rectify that.:)

    I agree that this image needs lowering of the colour temperature in the post processing stage. I like the eye contact. Separation between the vegetation and the lion would have been good. A tight composition will also work.

    Hi Haim,

    A lovely intimate moment well recorded. The pointers above would improve things imo. The eye contact is excellent and drawers me into their faces.

    Wow, that's a glorious portrait in magnificent light! Rare to see interaction between a male lion and a cub of this age. Just love the eyes too! Thanks for sharing this exquisite image!
