Description

Image of hungry lioness on the hunt. Our safari group follow this young lioness over an hour. We thought she had lost a cub she was so intent, but indeed she was simply hungry. Many attempts yielded no result.

I'm thrilled beyond belief! I just joined BP in April and submitted a photo for each category and I have two finalists in the mix!
