This lioness was in the right place at the time for her portrait shoot this morning. She is part of the Intibane pride. Together with her three sisters, she was keen to hunt, as their bellies were empty. But it got quite hot already and the four of them withdrew in the cooling shade of thicker bush a few minutes after this picture was taken.
The soft early morning light and a position slightly below the large cat made this picture possible.
