One of my favorite animal portraits – This Lioness just finished her Giraffe dinner (first course!) – The Lions must have killed the Giraffe just minutes before we arrived, judging by the color of the blood.

How did you manage that background? Lightroom?
No lightroom, the background was sand with a long lens (2.8/300mm) and slightly overexposed.
Thank you Christian. Although I only have a Canon 100-400 4.5 I might have a slightly similar picture taken in Zambia recently, a lion lying on the sandy riverbed. I was on a photographic safari in Zambia and was told to overexpose because of the white sand. I might be wrong but I believe I saw one of your books in the Library in Zuca (Phinda) , South Africa.
