    Default More cubs, different pride

    Attached Images Attached Images
     
    Recently I posted 2 cubs suckling and looking over the back of the lioness. They were part of a pride with 8 cubs, these 2 cubs belong to a different lioness who had 4 cubs. We found them some distance away near the Talek river. She appeared to be on her own and had a nasty gash on one leg and some teeth missing but appeared to be healthy enough.

    Hilary, definitely high cute factor and I would agree with Ken on the white belly.

    Nice moment captured well against a soft background.

    Hilary- Wow, the cub on the viewer's left looks just like my 4 year old grandson when he's had too much sugar! Great connection on an emotional level and a photo you can easily sell if you so desire. TFS. Alex

    Cute! The soft light and colors goes well with the soft look of the cubs' fur.

    Very cute interaction shot, Hilary. Like the soft look to this and how you framed it. Agree about belly, and I would be tempted to lighten the eyes just a bit. Very well done!
