This is amazing. We were there in February, when the grasses were high, green & golden, it was cooler, but the tall grasses obscured the view of the lions.
The lion by the back wheel appears to have been run over. Just the angle of the shot, I guess. Remind me not to go there in December. TOO hot. But it is an area I've always dreamed of visiting, but a long way from Canada. All the best for 2011. -- K

I thought I was adventurous, but this looks a bit too close and too hot for comfort. If those big lions are too hot to pay you any mind, I can't imagine you were feeling cool either!
Humans, like the lions, prefer to be in a group, not off wandering around alone but sharing life together in communities. I like the way you show how much we have in common with the animal kingdom, how much personality animals do possess, and how much we actually have inherited from them.

and i assume you could not move until they left so you must have been there quite awhile. very cool.
It is always best, if you have to get near lions, to have lethargic lions. And I'm not lying!
Fantastic image! Yikes!
They must be well-fed! What an adventure! I would SO be there, if I could!
Happy New Year!

WoW! How incredible it must have been to be so close to such a wild animal... incredibly scary, too! WoW!

As the comedian said--'How hot is it?'-----Too funny. MB
Great shots...the wild cats are so cute...but also dangerous.
