Michael, it's hard not to be moved by the display of emotion depicted here. Great capture!

Michael

This is exceptional. Love the detail on the two lions. I do agree with Sandy on the bit of noise. You might consider a mask and two passes at the noise so that more noise is masked out of the background than on the animals.

Great catch of this interaction between the 2 lions. On my monitor it seems to have a slight magenta cast. Not enough to be a real distraction. Nicely taken. TFS.

Nicely done, Mike. This has some beautiful interaction between the two lions. Other than the already mentioned noise reduction I would not change a thing. BTW congratulations on the WP.

I really like the emotion from the two cats here Michael, as if she is consoling the King of Beasts because they aren't still wild and free. I know that is attributing too much, but the look is really good.
