@haskar @joysfocus @grammyn @ljmanning @johnfalconer Thanks so much, I am always quite chuffed when one of my shots make it :-)

Two places near where we live have exotic animals, Keystone Safari and Living Treasures. You can be anywhere in the park when the lions decide to roar and it can be heard clearly

Congratulations on this being one of the Top Twenty!
