Just strolling along looking for (at?) my next meal. Nice shot.

Ken: the composition, direct eye contact and background are excellent. The low perspective is a big plus as most photos are taken from the height of the car you're in. Richard

Hi Ken,

This is one my favourite of your recent posts - the low angle and simplicity of the shot make it stand out quite nicely. This angle almost makes it look like you've found a new species - The Bearded Lion! enlightened

Cheers...

Brad
