Majestic Lion

[Dan S]

Good afternoon to all,
I wanted to get some C+C on this image that I took yestday while at Dublin Zoo. It was shot with a D3 & a Sigma 70-200mm lens, with a X2 converter filled. The light was poor & it was drizzleing on the glass I was shooting through. The subjuct fortunetly just poked his heat out of his den when the image was shot.

Thanks for looking

Fine example of wildlife photography, we see so many shots that break the golden rule of 'The eye's must be in focus'

Brill!!!!

A fine portrait. I really like that

Nice portrait well caught
It does look a tad yellow on my monitor though.
Tweeking the white balance might help

Nice portrait shot. Agree with the yellow comments...does look a little off.

Thanks for all your comments guys, on reflection the image does look a little yellowish. So to that end here's the improved version.

Once again any C+C welcome.

Cheers, Dan Short

Hope you dont mind I had a little play
Just go to selective colour ( if you have this option and turn down the yellow)
and just a tad of USM
