Description
This week features a weary, battle scarred mother just beyond the prime of her life. She had numerous open wounds on her side and it was also evident she was suckling, her cubs hidden out of sight. She is as vigilant and dangerous as can be despite her exhausted appearance. Sitting in the bush watching animals reveals many a story to the keen and watchful eye. I hope you enjoyed looking at this proud lioness.
Thank you for encouraging messages, and comments and visits to my fun upload.

Oh bless her what a superb capture hugs lou x
a wonderful shot
A magnificent beast. Excellent photo.
Awesome!
What a noble and dedicated creature! Since they are mostly on farms these days will someone get a veterinarian for her to heal her wounds? She probably got them protecting her cubs...too bad they weren't withing shooting range as well!
:)
Oh Pieter, this is gorgeous. I just love it - the frame is excellent, too. Out of frame-ish :)
I like the way you put the frame layer behind her chin.

Beside the suspicious nature depicted on the weary face, can't beat the POV, tawny colors, clarity and lighting in this excellent portrait of this magnificent beast!
