He was probably coming back from his territorial patrol when I encountered him on an early morning. He suddenly stopped and lifted head to look over the tall grass towards where the rest of his pride was resting. Canon 5d Mark III, Canon 400mm f/2.8. Shutter 1/640 f/7.1, ISO 400.Standing tall

Where was this taken? I'm a fan of African wildlife. My complements on the photo: framing the lion off center to anticipate what he is viewing in the distance.

Thanks for the compliments. This photo was taken in Maasai Mara, Kenya.
