Location
The photo was taken at the Sacramento Zoo. It was in the morning as it gets hot in Sacramento and the lions like to stay out of the heat. I was waiting a long time for the lions to come out. He was walking around and climbed up on his rock and laid down. I could not believe that he was looking right at me.Time
I believe it was about 9:30 AM on a cool morning.Lighting

See the world as a child. Everything is a new experience Don't be afraid to just let the camera do the talking. Look right, look left, look behind you, look up. You never know where the next magnificent capture will come from.
