Love the light, colour and mood you've created here Hendri. Nice low perspective also.

Hendri:
The colors, exposure, sharpness, poses all great here.
The bright tongues really add a punch of color.
I am guessing that had just finished eating because of the fresh blood on the face of the second one from the right.
A high impact image, coupled with good techs. Very well done.

Great color and capture of the interesting action. I like the tight crop as well.
Excellent image Vendri. Perfect composition and techs.
Love it as posted. Wonderful comp, color and detail. Well done.

Hi Hendri, an image I would love to capture and one of the nicest lioness images I have seen. Great light & colour with an excellent POV.

Post Production: It’s ALL about what you do with the tools and not, which brand of tool you use.
Great light and color. Really like the close crop.
great work here Hendri - lovely light and tight framing...must've been nice! imagine you had them to yourself?
Can't anything more to the comments made already … really excellent image.
Hendri - beautiful image in beautiful golden light. Well done.
TFS,

Thanks for the kind comments everyone. Sorry for the spelling mistake, only noticed it too late and now I cant change it. "quenching their first" should read "quenching their thirst":o
Good point Harshad - I tighter crop could work nicely here.
Yes Randy they did come of a kill but not visiible from the road.
Morkel I had them to myself for more than a hour. The nice thing about Urikaruus:)
Hendri,
You are on a roll with some fantastic shots. Beautifully exposed and a great moment from the great beasts. Thanks.
DB
