i was just about to exit this pic and took one last look .. she took on an almost 3D quality .. that fur is amazing .. i feel i could reach out and pat her and bury my fingers in her luxurious coat .. :)

dont know what this awesome pic is doing here in 9th place ...
just my personal opinion that it has a lot more going for it than a couple of the pics that beat it ..
it is a great black and white edit .. and i'm feeling that the bright sunlight might have given you a bit of a headache in the editing .. i could be wrong ..
love the details and her proud posture ..
its always a shame that we cage these amazing animals in zoos ... once again i could be wrong .
you could have taken a quick trip to africa and been face to face with nothing separating you but air .. ;)

You’ve captured this lioness in an appealing and aesthetically pleasing pose. Exposure is spot on, and a good mono conversion.

This is gorgeous in BW!

She's lovely and I love all of the details in her fur.
