Following the freezing chase the day before this time he came to us it was still cold though.
We parked up at Kennedy 2 waterhole and waited the sun had not yet risen.
He arrived!

Hi Ken! Very cool image!
I was just thinking about, how to enhance the breath here.
If you could eliminate the skyline then next bright area would be lion's breath.
BTW you cam also enhance it in post processing.

I very much like the element of his breath. I think a closer crop would focus our attention there even more.
