Hey everyone, I took this photograph quite a while back at a zoo i visited, unfortunatley there was a wire fence between us and i could not take a photo without it getting in the way, however i had tried my best and this is the result, Please take the time to leave feedback. Thankyou to everyone who stopped by.

You did an excellent job blurring the fence. The only other thing you could have done is clone it out altogether..but that's a pain. The lion looks so tame sleeping. Very nice color and focus on her. Well done.

Hi everyone thankyou all for taking the time to look and comment on my photos/artwork...unlike many of you i am not a photographer im a stay at home mom! however i always always have my camera to hand and im slowly learning how to edit the photos i capture with adobe. I use my FujiFilm FinePix S1600 to capture 90% of my photos. Again i'd just like to say thankyou again who to everyone for making me feel welcome here at Caedes. Emily x

He has the Hannibal Lecter about him Clarice.



I like lighting and the bars in this shot as it makes the view more accurate to the occasion that you saw him. It's also reassuring that you weren't tempted to get closer.

I like the fence in front of the lion! It almost makes it look like a frame. He is a real pretty cat!! Great shot!

Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself, where the heck is the ceiling.

Hi Emily. I'm awfully glad there was a fence between you and old Leo here. He does look cute and cuddly when he's asleep though. Great shot!

Nicely done! The blurred fence provides nice context for this scene. Wen

Hi everyone, just thought i'd mention that the fence was blurred via my camera and not via photoshop.

You know what? This photo tells a story and the fence is part of it. I say leave it there it works for me.

Like you say it's a shame about the fence, apart from that i think its a real good shot of this wonderful puddy cat.

wonderful shot of a beast at rest. looks almost approachable and cuddly. For me, the fence is not very conspicuous and it actually does not detract from the overall image, because it puts the subject into the context of where it is, in a zoo. Nice work!

Hard work never killed anybody, but why take a chance?
