Early evening.Lighting
The lighting was all natural, the golden hour had not quite started.Equipment
This was taken many years ago with my first digital SLR and a poor quality zoom lens. It just goes to prove that owning good equipment doesn't necessarily make you a good photographer.Inspiration
I was sitting in a jeep when we came across this lion. I simply couldn't not take a picture of it.Editing
Apart from sharpening, this image was straight out of the camera.In my camera bag
At this time I simply had the camera and one zoom lens. I didn't even carry a spare battery.Feedback
Go on a safari and be patient.
