Holy mackerel. How close were you to this beauty? Go girl! What a lion portrait. I love the title too. Perfect. Magnificent. What a great capture. A keeper.

Yikes, woman...you have the courage of a lioness! This is one fantastic image, and I don't care if it was in the wild of if he was behind bars..this is one scary dude...
Great shot and it's in all the appropriate slots for my further enjoyment.. I am so glad you upload here :)

Oh my god! You got me scared the second I had me eyes on this proud lion. He was thinking: "no ketchup needed, i'll take a bite of this photograph right away." I am wondering if you were holding that wood stick to keep him away as you jumped in his cell :-)
You captured the strength of this lion in one shot: thanks for sharing.
Jen, think your initial title was 'brown eyes'. If so, this title is even better. He's observing you indeed. Great image. Wonderful captured! Regards, Cornelius

...and his eyes are saying "you look like a big bowl of Tender Vittles". He seems too close to comfort for me! I'm glad it was you taking the pic and not me! Very good shot!

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual.
