Into the night
When you are on safari and you are keen on getting beautiful pictures, you can't go to a better place than one where the owner ànd the rangers are all fantastic photographers themselves. You know for sure that both the set up of the reserve and the knowledge and skills of the rangers will help you to eventually go home with shots that you are really happy with.
We had found the lions when the sun was about to set. They were at ease and weren't going anywhere soon. Perfect situation for back-light shots!
But.. the lions did what lions do best: sleep!
There was only that one moment when the two sisters looked up, only to go back to sleep 2 seconds afterwards. Júst enough to get one or two shots :-)

Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L II USM at 200mm
