King of The Beast give a look

[Marcy]

Went to Out of Africa Wild life park in Verde Valley AZ -a real nice park with good enclosures for the animals - they have several shows and feeding time is a big hit - this guy had just gotten his big hunk of meat and did not want to share - so he gave us the "look" -
They had a great many of un-obstructed view platforms that you could get some good shots without bars and chain link - but you had to be patient.
take a look - CC is always welcome

Great capture of an awesome subject.

He is a fine fellow. If you have Lightroom, or Photoshop, you can lighten the shadow on his forehead a bit to open up some detail.

I love big cats! And big cat photos! Please post more if you have them! Check out my shot of Sumatran tigers if you like big cats...
