Photography exploring Landscape. Wildlife. Travel. Culture. Life.
Why do I love the lion?
Maybe I fell for this beautiful lion because her behavior reminded me of my dog.
#1. I could look at this face all day.
#2. Licking her paw and yawning, that’s my dog.
#3. I can’t get close to this dangerous African animal, but I CAN look at her all day with these photographs I made with my Nikon D800 and Tamron 150-600mm lens, at 600mm held steady with a monopod.
Transvaal lion just chillin’ in the shade at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. Gotta love that face, and respect those canine teeth.
