Black Maned Lion, Central Kalahari Game Reserve, Botswana

............. brilliant capture. Just a brilliant capture!

Lets get the negative out of the way......... damn that ripple!

Botswana....... a beautiful part of the wolrd. Luckily this lion has just fed, as with a stare like that, you could have been his next meal.

Sean, this is a lovely capture, you had the sun in your favour to get those eyes. Well done......... great lighting, colours and clarity. A winner.

Gorgeous creature and wonderful capture! That expression on his face...I don't know whether to slowly retreat or stand in awe! Beautiful image and the reflection is the icing on the cake. Thank you for sharing. :)

Awesome!
