This week’s I Heart Faces theme is Pets! I have posted tons of pictures of Kitty Paw over the past six months and have most recently entered my favorite shots of her in other photo challenges, so I decided that I would mix it up this week. It just so happens that my husband and I were at the zoo on Saturday, and we ran into Kitty Paw’s older brother.
Don’t you just love that my macro lens can get so close that it looks as if I was right on top of him (I could have gotten this shot with a telephoto like the 55-250mm as well) – yeah, I’m not that crazy! It was so hot on Saturday that nearly all of the animals found some sort of shade. This lion was no exception. In order to get this shot, I had to lean over the concrete barrier and angle back into the barrier, as this lion was leaning up against it. He has this look on his face as if to say, “I know I’m supposed to enjoy the African sun, but seriously people…it’s f-ing HOT and HUMID here.”
