This lion expression is awesome. You did a great capture.
I can't stop myself thinking he ate something that gave him pain in his least royal part. ;-)
I actually like the softer focus here. It gives the shot a rather abstract appeal. The lines and movement here are just excellent, and the lighting and color is superb. I think with a sharper focus I might not have noticed those things as readily.
Several of my photos are available for purchase in larger format at Shutterpoint, and some are also available in high quality framed prints at http://djholmes.imagekind.com/
Really liked both ... the "Crown Prince" and this one. I feel the "Crown Prince" was slightly more in focus ... BUT ... WOW!, do I ever love the snarling pose you've captured here. Very nice work in both offerings ... well worth visiting both for a closer look. Thanks!
I think you might tell his keeper that I think he has a cavity on the top right...way in the back!!!
Boy Howdy, this is one intense look on his face, and your soft focus puts the viewer in tune with emotion rather than reality. What a great shot, my friend.
