Sometimes pictures tell an exciting story. So do these!
They were taken with a 28mm (wide-angle) lens and not cropped.
Our oldest North Pride Lioness had decided to walk up to our vehicle and she had first a good look at me (picture below) and then at the guests behind me (picture above). My instruction to hold still and not move was followed without any discussion :-).
As she was in touching distance I took the picture above without moving the camera and without looking through the viewfinder (hence the funny composition). Nevertheless I thought many of you might enjoy this awesome predator’s look.

That’s Awesome for sure. I bet everyone got a rush with their hearts pounding as she walked passed. Lucky for you and your guest the she was having a good day. I would hate to encounter thoses razors she sporting around on her front paws. Have A Great One!
Beautiful!!!!
Oh my gosh…wish I had been there. But it must have been a bit scary. Wouldn’t you think they might recognize the sent of man and figure it out? Especially when they get that close. Hopefully not, for your guests sake.
She is beautiful!
