Masai Mara is one of the only places you will find tree climbing Lions, this female decided it was time to go and find her supper..

As long as you are not alone you are safe. if the big kitty starts chasing yall .just shoot the fastest runner in your group to give the rest of you a better chance of making the tour bus unbloodied////////////​/naah no guns just put some gravel in the fastest runners shoes.

I love how you captured the extra space of the frame on the side she is looking. This is an often overlooked composition key, and it does so much for the beauty of the picture.

good shot - when I was in the Serengeti this past spring we found several places where the lions would get in the trees - at one point we had 10 lions in one tree - it was fantastic
