Le portrait de ce lion est MAGNIFIQUE... les teintes et la nettetés sont excellentes, et on a presque envie d'oublier que c'est un grand fauve pour venir le caresser...

Love how you've zoomed in (or cropped it tight) and how his face fills the frame. Wonderful!

@Marcie: That's exactly what I did: zoomed in and cropped it tight! How did you know? :)

Sure he is...But I think I'll let someone else try and take his goodie away from him...;)

Un visage de puis la nuit des temps, fauve de savane le roi de la jungle, il reste une beauté de ce lion. La composition très très bonne , L'iso entre bien dans horizon des yeux.
