wow great capture. Love this!! nice clean clear black and white shot.. Great image!

wow Stephen… love the gentleness/ lower composition of this image – it adds a sense of humility to an animal that we normally associate with pride.

it almost looks human!

magestic indeed
love the black and white

Wonderful shot!!! I love this lions expression too. They are beautiful creatures!!!

this is a really good photo

Stephen, she is definitely majestic. Nice B&W conversion and the comp is just right. Well done! :)

Did you have the lioness against a black background? If not, then I see marvellous patience in the silhouetting of the fur line. I seriously cannot pick it! You’re attention detail in simulating the depth of field (particularly comparing the fur line of each ear) is immaculate…love it!

Thank you all for the wonderful support and ongoing comments, they are really appreciated!

She really is magestic. She looks to be smiling :~)
