lion

........... this is a dynamic shot of a beautiful animal. The clarity and definition is outstanding........ well done.

As a wildlife photographer in my past life (living in Africa) my preference will always be colour images of these magnificent beasts. I would love to see the colour version.

Thank you for your contribution. Here is the color-version. This is a zoo-lion in a town called Wuppertal, Germany. In this case, I prefer the bw-conversion.

Well done, but don't get too close!
