Is she ready?
We have seen many lions in Etosha. These are also from the pride where the clipped off tailed young mail was from. I warmed up the photo a bit and had to resize it a lot to get into the 200kb limit, and I am still on my laptop in Moscow, so suggestions and comments are especially welcome.

Great habitat behavior well captured Lorant, there is a slight magenta cast here.
Took the colour cast away via Nik Efix pro 3 (CC removal) and used a Luminosity layer in CS5 as well.
Let me know what you think?
Lorant - Nice to see a broader view. Agree with Marc about the magenta cast. It's most visible in the trees in the bg. Marc's repost takes care of it.

Lorant, I like the animal behaviour shown in the image and especially the almost pastel quality of the photograph. The repost gets rid of the cast.
I like the story telling aspect of this image very much.
The mentioned colour cast is evident here on the original post.

Nice behavioral image. Marcs repost brings it up a notch. Well done.

Lorant,
I think the answer to your question is probably not yet, as the presence of the sub-adults would not normally occur.
The grouping works very well, I hope she waits a while then we might have some "tiny" cubs for late June next year.
excellent image Lorant , great behavioral shot

Like the behavior and the color of the vegetation in the background. The repost really brings it out well.
