Lions, Maasai Mara, Kenya

I know some of you have seen this one before but I could not find the shot I wanted to use tonight so I figured this would work. Tomorrow I'll try to have a good image to 'END' my motif with...

Nikon N90s with Tamron 200-500 MF lens, Sensia 100

Comments, critiques and especially captions are welcome.

I remember this one Cheryl, and just as awesome now as it was the first time I viewed it.
I remember the first time I showed it to my wife, ................. she just slapped me in the back of my head!!! 8)

Oh Yes Cheryl!! this one always makes me smile. The only mating shots we have got so far have been taken from behind - as they discreetly turned their backs! :)

The expressions really add the icing on the cake in this shot.

Cheryl this is priceless! What an animal he is(no pun intended) and she looks like she has a headache. Way to intrude on the moment. :lol:
