Hi all,
Here is another from this years trip to the Masai Mara. I say this years because I am already working on permission for next years migration....
This was early morning and the light was almost horizontal. You can see the shadow on mum cast by the left hand side cub. The other cub was getting excited looking for a cheeky meal.

Works great. From my processing knowledge I would say it needs more contrast and there feels like a slight green cast to it, the composition and the interaction is great.

very nice. It looks like it could do with a slight levels lift to me, but that could be my monitor. It's a lovely scene.

Lioness with flies (oh and cubs too )
Superb interaction shot between mum and cubs.

Really nice interaction between mum and cub 1, plus cub 2 and the viewer. Colours look fine for that time of day to me. Only nit is feels a bit tight on the right, but still lovely to see
