Nice shot of this pretty lady. You did a good job on the exposure against that bright sky. Well done.

Great subject, very well placed in the frame.
I somehow feel that sun was bit high for this kind of frame.

Jerry,

Thanks for your comment,

Jagdeep,

You could well be correct unfortunately in places as near the Equator as this park is the sun is overhead most of the day, "golden light" is very rare.

Really nice clean image Ken. The high pose really shows how regal these animals are.
