She was a beauty resting on a platform on top of a pole - this is the reason for the different angle and crop. It simply was not possible to take a reasonable photo any other way.
Thank you all! #174147

Excellent lioness portrait, birdie! The low light and the closeness of the shot make it very personal and gives it a strong mood and presence. #174398
