not a care in the world what a great shot :)

I know this doesn't remotely compare, but when I saw this it reminded me of what my German shepherd looks like when he's sleeping outside. Such a beautiful picture!!!

It's exactly how our cat at home likes to lounge as well. That was part of the reason for capturing it, but also for the playful, not a care in the World he was displaying!

Don't you just want to pet him?

just checking this shots not gone hahaha love this

He's going to be here for a while!

I have never seen a photo of a lion in this position. Fantastic capture!

Thanks a lot

What a lovely photo!

Thank you

Platinum

Love it!!!! :) LOL!

He's quite clearly a poser haha! Thanks for taking a look!

What an amazing shot!! It kind of makes me want to reach out and rub his belly, except for the possibility of becoming dinner :-).

Hopefully he already had a full belly! This is supposed to be the position that is taken following a meal to aid digestion!
