lioness

Managed to get a nice angle on this lioness. A few distracting elements but it still takes me back to the moment. D850 200 to 400 f4 400mm f4 1/1000 iso200 oct 23 photosafari

Interesting watching all the interaction, I liked the way the cubs wet fur rendered. The group went away and came back after a while, a third cub was dead, possibly it drowned or was weak. The mother stayed with it for a while then they all left D850 200-400 at 400mm f4 1/400 iso 400

This is a crop from a full body shot simply because I like the one fly hanging in air. D850 200-400 f4 400mm f5.6 1/1600 iso 400
