Taken at MalaMala in South Africa on the Sand River. Slight crop to panoramic format. (Cape Buffalo dung on right side of image left in - that's the true Africa)

So cute! Good crop choice, for this line of cats. Having so many pairs of eyes visible is great in a group shot like this it's a challenge. I particularly like the one cub snuggled under mama, it helps tie everything together.

It makes a change to have CB dung in the line up, its usually the ever present Elephant dung! A fine line up - perfect for the pano presentation, and no doubt the rest of the pride will be a vital part of their upbringing. Sweet!

Great family portrait. I think this could use some CW rotation

Lovely sighting and angle!
I agree it needs some rotation and I feel the white balance is a tad on the warm side?
