From my visit to Black Pine, Mufasa the lion, was soaking in the sun, and even with coaxing he ignored me. Never mind the cameras, this is what you going to get. Lol!

I'm thinking of entering this one into the current contest.

I used the canon combo / set at f5.6 in AV mode, and took this one through fencing.

Thank you for the views, and comments.

---I'm thinking of entering this one into the current contest---

Has caused anyhow a smile from ear to ear to me Sandi, so it would be an appropriate entry for the 'Humorous' contest.

If so, I wish you Good Luck with it my friend.

Regards, Cornelius.

Those paws remind me of the lion from the Wizard of Oz...when he was showing off his courage to Dorothy. A super shot and great entry into the contest Sandi! Fantastico!

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

He does that only when he is totally relaxed. Unusual and funny shot. Will make a good entry.

Maybe the Tin Man will wake him up later Tigz, if he has the heart. I don't think the Scarecrow has the guts.
Pretty funny pose.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

An interesting picture, Sandi, but I think it could have been improved by having you in the picture, possibly rubbing its tummy. I think you should consider going the extra mile in your large cat pictures ;)
