I was not expecting the twig to be a car part but it obviously made a good toy.

Very nice image. I wonder what the parents did with the owners of the car? angel

Perhaps a little shadow adjustment would bring out the cubs' faces a bit more.

I love the silly juvenile look on their faces Helena. This is great. I also like the pano treatment of this.

Hi Helena,

I like the image, especially the lighting - but find it a bit of a shame that the lions are playing with something that may not do them a lot of good if they ingest bits of it. I'm not sure I understand the rationale (or appeal) of the pano crop here...

Cheers...

Brad

PS to Ken: So...if this is Helena's image, why are YOU thanking folks for commenting (as though you posted it)?
