This lioness had her eye's on some springboks but as she moved they ran off and she wasn't successful that morning.

just an awesome pose in awesome light here Vivaldo!
nothing more to add. initially I checked my vision as it seemed skew but the rotation seems realistic in that she is walking to the left and to the front diagonally
Vivaldo, I would try a bit of CW rotation as it does lok like she is going downhill.
Great light, expression and composition with a soft, clean background.
Lovely light here Vivaldo. Nice stalking pose with intense stare. Good sharpness and exposure. Guess not everyone got the memo "the world is not flat". Even in the avian forum your subject had better not tilt its head for fear of the leveling ruler in ps even if it was natural for him to do so. That said I would not rotate this image if mine as it looks very natural (foliage looks good to me as well). Well done.

Just an awesome view of the lioness, the light, attitude, composition.
One question, did you add canvas to the LHS as it looks a little repetitive? If so, I'd spend a bit of time just cleaning that up … other than that, perfect.
Nice intent look and great pose with the spread out legs. A nice overall pleasing color for me. Also like the curled tail tip.
A perfect example of why we call a lion the colour of Africa.
Great stalking pose and lighting Viv, agree on small CW rotation.

Sweet Vivaldo! I love the light and intense stare.
How I wish this was in my files , Simply awesome , big congrats

Great light and for me the intensity of the eyes just makes this image. Well done.
TFS,

Thanks very much for all comments and suggestions it appreciated
Hilary added a little canvas on the left hand side, agree with you as it looks a bit odd, need to fix the repetitive area's.
Classic pose here Vivaldo, really like the raise shoulder and fixed stare.
With the suggestion taken on board, this would be a good image, nicely done.

Hi Vivaldo, this is a superb lion image..what a shot. Agree with Hilary on cleaning up LHS, it is well worth doing it right..the lions pose, the light, and the intensity of her focus..excellent

I think you are right there Todd
The position of the Lions legs clearly show she is walking down a slight slope.
Great image, if you do not pixel peep
Thanks again for comments
Vivaldo, worth working on the canvas expansion in my opinion … repost looks great.
All been said, love the pose, intense stare, light! Repost looks great!
Vivaldo,
This now looks "normal" what a pity. Nice work cleaning up the added canvas.
