Most wonderful interaction captured greatly Nikolai.
Very beautiful warm light, colors and details. Also love the way the young lion does lift his tail to show the affection is really meant.

Best regards, Harry

A nice scene - and it's not hard to see that love between animals is just as stunning as between people:)
Nikolai Zinoviev  Completely true statement in my view, thank you Heidi !

like this one Nicolai, I too look for the interaction to shoot but it's not always there.
Nikolai Zinoviev  Yep, it is a waiting game. I always smile when some publicly active wildlife photog says that he is planning another great wildlife scenario to photograph ... Staging animal shots that became dependant on humans for food and taking pictures of wildlife are two completely different things... we are just the witnesses and each moment can bring totally unexpected. And yes it takes great patience and hope to be able to wait for two weeks to take just one good picture :-)
