It was always the older and bolder cubs that took an interest in my Nikon, they loved peering into that glass and seeing their reflection.

CamRanger remote setup hung low over my door.

Interesting shot. The cat in the foreground is perfect. Some weird OOF areas on the cloud behind the rear cat is a bit distracting and could easily be cleaned up a bit so as to not pull the eye away from the kitties :)

Great perspective and love the expression of the foreground cub. Agree about the weird OOF areas.

I guess this is the nearest you get to a lion cub selfie, Marc!   Well done to capture something different.  :)

It's actually an Acacia tree EJ & John, not a cloud, ....just the DOF @ f/4 doing it's thing.
