One of five lionesses in the savuti pride - I posted a close-up of the lion earlier. There has been a documentary made on the large pride of which this group is a splinter - in the documentary the pride was taking down elephants...
Thanks for your reply! WOW...you sound like a very adventurous person! That's great, and I can tell that you LOVE it! Animals are indeed amazing, not sure I'd want to be that close to wild ones though. But, people such as yourself can surely bring to all of us amazing photographs! I look forward to seeing more of your wonderful work! Lori :)
Thanks Lori for your kind words and stopping by - these are very wild and very beautiful. Have never seen such beauty and condition anywhere else. The Savuti, Moremi and linyanti are all part of the greater okavango in Botswana - the best camping, very remote and very wild, no internal fences, not even around camping sites - Oo... the pleasure of counting lion (and leopard, wild dog, hippo, etc,) spoor around your tent every morning...

I like the up close crop. I think on this one, I would crop into her forhead, remove the distracting highlights. Which would actually move her eyes up a bit higher in the frame anyway, which I think would be great.
Very nice work, so these were wild lions? Not on a reserve?
