Very visceral image you captured here. The expression on the lion's face along with the flies tell a gruesome story, at least for the buffalo. I would consider cropping a bit off the right side. Were you able to zoom out and catch both of the lions in the frame?

Good as is, Ken. I could use some Alka Seltzer...

Jerry and Philip,
Thanks or your comments, with hindsight opening up the zoom may have been better

Nice job of handling the detail in the backlit situation. Graphic!
