This is one of my favorite shots.I took it at the zoo in Chicago back in April.I entered the Original in the contest back in April & a B/P friend suggested that I crop it.After looking at his gallery I also decided to put a painting effect on it,In Microsoft Picture It!! Publish date 2001 I used the Pencil:Detailed Sketch effect.I liked it so thought I would see what happens.Thanks for the advise Kenneth

Thanks you Lavone,,,It was fun,,,my husband had gotten me the new zoom lens and taken me to a zoo...I have been to a whole lot of zoos and I have seen a whole lot of lions...Mostly sleeping...But when this guy started to roar,,,well needless to say I was excited,,,Then I tried counting to try and catch the right timing of the breath,,,it didn't stay long and it took seven shots...this is #7 and the only one of 15 that I took of him on the rock roaring that you can see the breath...I was very EXCITED...Thanks for your comments...: ) #3273533
