Thanks for the kudos guys, and I never said that there was no post work done. Few images if any are published without any post work these days, but it is not a composite,
I had to shoot up into the sky so I did have to recover the detail and some of the color in the sky that was there. The color on the lioness and the sky in the image is as I remember it when I shot it.

Beautiful.

You can never truly go back to the same place twice. Too many variables in life. That's part of the fun.

There was some selective sharpening done and then i darkened the sky about 1 stop of light and added a vignette. Took all of 5 minutes of work.

Awesome shot. Which part of Namibia was this taken? Etosha? Namib desert?

Great shot.

Did you use a polarizing filter? I'm deciding whether or not to take one to Africa soon.
