    Lion portrait, Kenya

    Same lion as in my other post with different filter presentation.

    ID MIV, 500mm, 1/250 @ f/11, ISO 400

    Image how-to processing information can be found HERE.

    I am looking forward to returning to Botswana this Aug, and Kenya next year.

    Best,

    Chas

    Wow, very nice Charles! What a mighty pose and portrait. I like both treatments you did. Nice touch with the PB oil, of course it helps to have an awesome base image to start with.

    Beautiful Charles. Truly a kingly pose and I am a big fan of the Pixel Bender Oil Paint filter. You did a great job with it! Love the subtle masking back of the eyes, did you do a little of that on the nose and mouth also? I really like this!

    Wow! Very majestic pose. Love the PB effect, it adds that perfect painterly touch to an already terrific image. I also love the other "Old" style version! Very nice work!
