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.Gary H. Minish August 21, 2003
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. #174398Suzie Strasburg August 21, 2003
