Reminds me of our house cats doing their claws on their scratching pads. The lion has that look of determined satisfaction as he makes his mark. I like the image and do not have any nits devil ........................Jim

Ken: lovely big head on this male. Seeing him on the trunk at a diagonal is most unusual and unique. Specs and composition are sp;ot on. Richard

Beautiful Ken. The lion looks both powerful and cat-like. Also, a beautiful setting.

Cheers,

Hisham.
