    I like the way the grass is framing him. Pity on the tree behind his head. I might bring the reds down a bit. Good sharpness. Well done.

    This is a lovely composition. I like the comfortable yet satisified look on the lion's face and that he really stands out against the blurred background. The image also seems a bit red on my monitor.

    Thanks for the comments. I did work on the colour balance and also tried to reduce the effect of the branches behind the lion.

    Color looks better on the repost. Good looking male. I would prefer a crop from the bottom to remove the legs or more room below with the full leg plus a little.
