I know, I'm not supposed to be smiling am I? But this is so "in your face", and the tongue is so cute that I just can't help myself. Great photo!

Now why doesn't he look fierce? Reminds me of Aslan from the Chronicles of Narnia (C.S. Lewis)
Post actions
Looks hot. Maybe needs some water. Very nice capture.

How can he be serious with his tongue sticking out? He must be a jolly fellow, indeed!
Post actions
The crop here is rather tight and I don't think it give a chance for the subject to express any of his personality through his surroundings and interacting with them.

Cool close up portrait of the king of the beasts.
Post actions
this is not very sharp and its a bit shady too despite the exposure.. , just four from me sorry ;)
Post actions
But that tongue hanging out makes him look cute. He's intent on something, but not the camera.

Excellent shot, the detail is amazing.

Nice crop and a good expression.
Post actions
good crop but the exposure seems a bit off on the muzzle to me
Post actions
A good crop and good gaze. Lighting doesn't seem to be helping this photo.
Post actions
this is really fantastic on many levels, you've got great detail in the fur, it's so sharp, and i just love the expression
Post actions
From the thumbnail, it looks like he has a black eye, kinda. Good close up detail, lighting is a bit harsh
Post actions
Filled the frame well. Great clarity.
Post actions
very good details with the exception of the small white patch in the lower portion. 6

the eyes are serious, but the tongue is humorous! Great shot...
Post actions
Need more in the photo so you can frame it. That detail is nice.
Post actions
a bit bright...but still beautiful

Such power, such patiecnce but also looks to me a little soft side. Love the tounge barely sticking out. Great focus and like the crop. Nice and tight.
Post actions
Great capture, maybe if he was more square on? 9
Post actions
Looks like he is concentrating hard (maybe on how to get to the photographer?) Nice close-up.

ha, with the title, I cant decide if he IS serious or if I should laugh at his tongue sticking out. Great photo!
Post actions
A bit too centered for my taste.
Post actions
Great details, well done. :)
Post actions
Great close up. I like the intense look in his face.
Post actions

What a face! He looks very friendly this way, almost touchable.

Larf. Hidden gems anyone? I didn't even see the tongue for a moment because I'm getting bad net lag right now and the bottom half didn't load for a couple of seconds. I had already started picking apart the apparent softness (probably the result of a strong crop?).
Post actions
Not focused enough on the eyes for me. Perhaps a bigger crop would help. Good pic.
Post actions
Nice tight crop, just a little overexposed on his left side there. The king of the jungle almost looks like a puppy here :)
Post actions
Yes, serious and intelligent. Your right in there close and personal.
Post actions
well composed image, nice shot
Post actions
To much light that day I guess but I love the subject matter.
Post actions
Picky, but a bit soft in places and one blown-out spot. Love the expression!
Post actions
Post actions
Nice tight crop draws you into his expresion
Post actions
Nice close up but the light seems a bit harsh.
Post actions
Spectacular capture. NIce detail.
Post actions
That's a lovesick look if I ever saw one :-) Burt Lahr never looked so good.
Post actions
Look's like he's really interested in something. Food!
Post actions
These kind of shots are ten a penny on DPC, however it seems to lack the impact of some of those other shots. Maybe becuase he isnt making eye contact with the viewer?
