Default Great hair day

Lion-1

I converted this image to HDR to get better definition in the mane. I like that it doesn't look like HDR.

"Safe?" Who said anything about being safe? But he is good." Sorry, Michael...CS Lewis and The Lion, the Witch and Wardrobe just came splilling out! Your work always takes my breath away and this photo is no exception. Beautiful work, Michael.

He certainly brings Aslan to mind doesn't he. It is a zoo shot, but sitting up on a rock ledge he looked so majestic. I am glad you like my work.

Great shot Michael. I too like the fact that you have not overdone the HDR - for this type of shot I dont think it would have been too great. Well done. Great detail. Thanks for sharing. I look forward to seeing more of your images.

You've done a great job with the HDR. That is a great image.
