San Diego Safari Park, Escondido, California, USA. Here is our regal lion, a few moments after posing for me - here is where he stayed for several hours. Makes me want to take a nap!
This is a wonderful shot, Thad. I did my usual and downloaded the shot to view in great detail. I found nothing that would qualify as a negative in any way. There's something about this guy in this particular position that makes him appear enormous (or enormouser). I might head out there next winter with my camera.
Thad, in my imagination I can feel some trembling at my screen caused by the snoring of His Majesty 'The 'King', lol. A 'Royal' image again. Well done, my friend!

Smile, without a reason why. Love, as if you were a child, Smile, no matter what they tell you Don't listen to a word they say Cause life is beautiful that way. (From the film "Life Is Beautiful")
A great capture of the infamous sleeping logs of the Serengeti. They've been known to fall without making a sound when no one is around. A brilliant idea for the zoo to add a stuffed lion to the scene. It really helps to put them in perspective. I always carry my chainsaw with me so I don't get caught unaware by these lumbering beasts.
