We found a lone Lioness with three cubs and sat watching for an all too short while. It was calm until we were eventually joined by a couple of other vehicles. This proved to be too much for her and she slowly walked off into the bush followed by the cubs. In all we probably saw around 25 Lions over the period we were in Kruger.      https://photography-on-the.net …/showthread.php?t=1203740

My dream is to go to Africa some day, and be lucky enough to get shots like this! AWESOME! Luck is a big part of it for sure. joayne wrote in post #8540780 Fantastic series Davey Boy! Welcome Home.. Looks like you had a lovely trip. I'll be searching out all the GAPS 3 threads  It's good to be home again. I really enjoyed the variety of areas we went to, but I think the others would have preferred to have stayed in Kruger. Box Brownie wrote in post #8541360 Absolutely stunning set and back story  I see the lens was (at) 300mm, just how far away were you and indeed are these full frame? thanks Boxie. These are all slight crops as we were very close. Az2Africa wrote in post #8542083 Great shots Dave. It appears much drier that it was in March. Looks like you had better luck seeing game than we did. It was dry for sure which makes things easier of course. Game was fairly prolific in Kruger even tho' we had a couple of less successful days there too. BrettM82 wrote in post #8542196 Wow, fantastic photos. I imagine you would have liked to stay and watch a little longer A little over 3 weeks till I'm in Kruger. Can't wait!! Cool ... where are you heading to there? CTM wrote in post #8542345 Nice shots! Thanks! https://photography-on-the.net …/showthread.php?t=1203740

It does get the adrenalin going when you find something special and there are no other vehicles to mess it up for you. Nice find. I trust that the rest of your trip was up to expectation.
