    Male Lion

    Here is another image from my recent trip to the Trans-Kalahari. This was taken at 1130hrs. Although outside the preferred "golden hour" I think that if the subject is powerful enough we can get away with it. The reason why he is so lively is that there was a lioness playing hard to get, every so often he would get up and walk around,go over to her then retreat to about fifty metres away I hung around for hours hoping for some romantic action but nothing, until they move into thicker bush and out of sight.
    All C&C good and bad appreciated.

    Definitely a keeper despite the light that is less than ideal. The size of the left elbow is amazing.

    For this type of capture time of day means nothing, just get the shot. Nice.
