Mother and Cub

by Anna de’Capitani

This image was taken after a hunt….3 lionesses hunt a giraffe. This mother was resting and waiting that the male eats.

Equipment: Nikon D 70 and sigma 120-300F2.8

To me the expressions look uncannily human. enthusiasm and agression in the young, contentment experience and wisdom in the grown up.
