What a beautiful lion! Nice sharpness and colours! I'm jealous, Tanzania must be really amazing to visit! =)

Hi Toba,
ja nicht schlecht, sehr gut sogar um genau zu sein. Dieses elegante Tier so zu sehen, echt klasse! Sag mal wie bist du denn so nah rangekommen? Gut, mitm Tele aber trotzdem warst ja recht nah dran. Die Farben und Schärfe sind super, ein richtig starkes Bild. Also ich finds top, freu mich schon auf weitere aus Tansania.

Very beautiful big cat ! Life is hard for him (or maybe her) !
I'm tempted to shake his belly like a cat...
I'll wait for new posts from your trip !

Hey Toba,
ja in Tansania gibts was zum fotographieren! Is dir ja super gelungen, super POV und klasse Motiv, ich find die ja total süß^^ Kann es sein, dass der Rahmen rechts kleiner ist als an den anderen seiten. Nichts desto trotz freuts mich auf weiter Bilder aus diesem traumhaftem Land.
Sehr gute Arbeit,
Kris

Hi Tobias,

You must have marvellous memories in the head !!! Large tiredness here… In this position it really seems tenderizing this lioness but attention she remains an wild animal… Beautiful photograph Tobias, cheer and thank you for sharing.

With all my friendships and a very good end-of-day,

Jean-Charles

Best regards

Bonjour Toba,
on a du mal à se dire qu'un aussi bel animal au regard si doux,est un prédateur féroce et sans pitié.
Une photo bien nette et remplie d'amour pour nos amis animaux.
Reposant, même si on n'a pas trop envie de dormir à côté.
Regards.
Daniel.

Hi Toba!
Echt ein super gelungenes Foto! Was hier am Meisten ausmacht ist, wie du den Löwen platziert hast: so entsteht Tiefe und mir gefällt auch der Fokus sehr gut.....der Kopf sehr schön Scharf und es lassen sich gute schärfenmäßige Unterschiede zum hinteren Teil des Bilds erkennen. Die Wahl von f/5.6 war schon recht gut, vielleicht wäre es sogar noch besser rausgekommen mit f/3.8 oder jedenfalls so groß wie möglich. Die Farben gefallen mir, die Belichtungszeit ist gut und durch den kleinen einfachen Rahmen (der hier sehr gut passt) kann man sich schön auf den Löwen konzentrieren.
Wie gesagt, die Platzierung macht hier alles auch, echt super, genau im richtigen Moment erwischt! Gutes Bild!
Grüße,
Jonas

Hi Toba
A very good shot with perfect sharpness. I like the way that the lioness still has her eye on you even though she's lazing about. Very good framing too. Well done.
Best wishes
Mark

dareco (17024) 2008-04-04 4:27

This is really a great capture. It looks so sweet and cuddly :) A beautiful picture. TFS

Uhu (7326) 2008-04-04 9:06

Oh I like it, I love cats, and big cats also. Poor thing all covered in flies, as I see. And her expression is so very unfriendly, ha! Great shot.

Angshu (33235) 2008-04-05 22:01

Hello Toba
Like this one...the lioness is blinking at you! Her stomach is full & she's resting. I like the zoomed picture, well framed from one end to another of the frame against the green grass. Very Good work Toba! Look forward for more of your Tanzania pictures! Regards
Angshu

Hello Tobias,
Amazing to see the big cat laying there so peacefully!
I notice one of her eyes is open so she's fully aware what is going on...
Great details in the fur coat, situation well captured!
Greetings,

robob (3640) 2008-04-16 4:28

Hello Toba,
Elle a l’air très paisible mais son œil entrouvert montre un peu de méfiance quand même,
On a presque envie de la caresser !
Un très bon moment de saisi !
Amicalement,
Robert

Hi Tobias,

The insects don't seem to bother the lion resting in the field. The point of view is showing the details and colors of the animal. The subject is well framed. The colors are warm. Have a nice day.
