Very in-your-face. I like it. I think it also works well with a bit of a trim from the bottom. Hope you were using a long lens!

A classic shot, it looks so gentle you could give it a cuddle. This one's had a battle or two by the looks.

I sometimes struggle with this type of shot,firstly i think its a terrific image of a stunning creature and the look and scars shows its a hard life but as you cant see anything else it could have been in a zoo like a million others and what most of joe public would think,I would have still taken it in your shoes and been proud to have it,Guess i just prefer the lion enviro type shot
