Lions

During the holidays, we had a night at the zoo - more on that fabulousness to come, but for now, I'm sharing my joy watching the lions at play. All shots are behind class but I thought the new camera did well. I'm still getting used to the settings so there's a lot to learn. Hopefully my old camera will be fixed soon!


Forgive the bombardment but these two at play really need the series for the full effect.


Given the lack of reaction from the lion next to them, I'm guessing this is a regular occurrence and nothing to pay any attention to.
Like a mother with squabbling siblings.
She definitely seemed more interested in me than in what they were doing....

  3. They are so beautiful and have such mournful looks. Hard to believe you can't get close to them. But at least we can enjoy your photos!

  11. Wonderful photos, Lydia. Seeing these magnificent creatures, I cringe when I think that people go and shoot them for "sport"! Disgusting!

  13. Wow! Wonderful pictures and what a great thing to be able to spend a night at the zoo!!! The camera makes it look as if you were standing right there .... But I'm very glad you were behind glass (or they were).
