The lion's paw

A female lion's paw. She is a white lion and oh so beautiful!

I'm sorry, it doesn't work for me.

The paw is overexposed, background is annoying and composition...
I'd rather would have liked to see the whole lion.

Well it doesn't look like a paw to me

Wow that is different. what do you mostly photograph? Why did you choose that angle?

 

[Feetjie]

It was taken through a glass window, and yes the angle is akward but the best I could do with about 500 other people squashing me to have look
And frankly, that is not overexposure, it's the actual colour of the lion - she is a white lion

Very interesting, I saw an article about shooting through glass and they suggested tilting the lens as opposed to flat against the glass, what did you do and what kit where you using?

 

[Feetjie]

Mmmm, I indeed had it flat against the glass :-(
Thanks for the hint about tilting it, will surely try that next time
