Beautiful use of light. One of the best animal portraits I've seen.

(as a side note, while I didn't notice it the first few times I've looked at this photo, I do notice on a different monitor that there are some possible spot editing marks in the background.)

Voted earlier coming back for comments. Great capture of this majestic lion!!! Love the details we see from furry mane, the whiskers, the hairs my the mouth, and around the eyes. Great coloration...the lighting captures the beauty of the shades that adorn this great cat. Love the catchlight that adds sparkle and dimension to his eye. I feel he is purposely posing; striking a regal kingly pose for us to appreciate his full majesty.

Strange rotation - looks like it should be rotated 45 to 90 degrees clockwise. But still a beautiful image. 7.
