Wow, dangerous smile! What concentration? I would run the hell outa' there and promise myself to learn taking good shots while running.
That was quite a bravery from you. Would you repeat it?

Regards, Petru

Great close up and very brave. Glad to say I have never seen the mouth of a lioness so close up. TFS. Dean.

Well timed shot but slightly out of focus. Never the less, a well taken opportunity! Well Done. Sheriff

Absolutely an eyecatcher! Very telling portrait. It makes my heart go faster when I look at it. Well composed, no compromises. Being a little out of focus doesnot matter to me at all. It tells me of the quick action required in documentary photography, and the danger you have been in. God bless you. I know why I prefer to capture butterflies. Congratulations!
Best regards, Peter

Yes, I enjoy and understand how difficult it was to stay calm in front of this feline and make a shot... Congratulations Reinier and thanks for sharing.

Il n'y a pas simplement les dents de l'animal qui est impressionnant, il y a aussi les yeux, je n'aurais pas voulu être à ta place! Juste une petite remarque, les dents et les levres sont d'une drôle de couleurs, est-ce tu as beaucoup modifié la photo?

Hoi Reinier, wauw this is wildlife! With your comments, I can imagine that theres a little bit of movement. Today I was joking to collegues that its more dangerous to travel too amsterdam by car than to visit south africa, and that lions are lots of fun. With your impressive picture I think I will have too come back on this subject.
Thanks for sharing Reina

What an amazing capture. Reinier. i can't believe you actually stood in front of this lioness with nothing but a camera between you.
A shot of a lifetime, extraordinarily executed considering the circumstances. My hat off to you. TFS. : )

Hello Reinier,
Very nice shot! That´s a very dramatic atmosphere. That´s not for me. I am to slow!
This is a difficult and dangerous action shot. I like it - but please don´t repeat it. Very well done!

Hi Reinier,
Now that is a mouthful of big teeth!. Great timing to catch this shot. I love the frame filling shots. I would have camera shake if this lion was doing this to me from that close. Well done!

Superbe capture ! Je suppose que le coeur battait très fort dans votre poitrine lors de ce shoot. Très belle netteté et, en plus, dans ces conditions. Congratulations. Gérard
