African Lion in the Ngorongoro Crater in Tanzania. Dozing and lying around seemed to be the favorite lion activity of the day! I cloned away a few OOF grass blades in the lion's mane.
Canon 40D, Canon 400 DO IS + 1.4x, f5.6, 1/200, ISO 500
Very cute foot shot, love the licking motion. The lack of eye contact help gain viewer attention to the foot, nicely done. The OOF flower/grass add to the image very well too.
Love the composition and overall feel !!! This is one difficult image form the contrast range point of view, need very soft light and I know its hard to get there !!! Did well with exposure With these situation would try focusing on two thirds into the frame and get as much dof as possible doing all possible .... raise ISO lower shutter speed etc Primary concern here is having as much as possible sharp !!! Like it a lot and thanks for contributing !!!
Foot Motif: African Lion
