Lioness in Training [Contest Finalists March 2004]
Uploaded: March 26, 2004 04:13:43
f/6.3, 1/480, ISO 160, no flash. (OK, so she was yawning, but it looked like she was trying to roar). I was taking photos of this collared "stray" that roams the embassy grounds while she was sunning in an ivy-covered hillside. Camera set on chrome color. No post processing except for addition of border.

Reminds me of "the mouse that roared…" Extremely well done, Jan. Terrific shot well presented. I hope everything went OK with "pap" and that everything is well, my dear friend - Allan #447267Gianna Stadelmyer March 26, 2004
Thank you Marie and Allan for the nice comments on the photo! Pap is doing well. Just got a call that they will actually get him up today and probably send him home in two days....amazing that after such a major operation, they boot you out of bed so quickly! Sincere thanks for your concern:-) #447295Kelly Abernathy March 26, 2004
