    • Thank you , Ronnie .
      It is a zoo- snap .The lion was not ferocious as in the wild, but the power and the fire were still there.

  6. I am deeply struck by this shot. Is that darkness going down the corner of the right eye, through the whole image, a shadow of a bar? It really just grips me in a way I can’t even describe. It’s an amazing and powerful photograph. A beautiful capture, utham.

    • Exactly , Lemony . It is one of the steel bars of the cage.I initially tried to get the picture with out the bars, then thought the bars will give it more impact .Happy to know you liked it.

      Thanks a lot.

      • Definitely, the shadow of the bar makes the image all the more poignant and meaningful. This is a photograph that will stay with me.

  15. It gives me chills when I look into the lion’s eyes… Excellent capture!

    July 10, 2012 at 7:15 am

    • :) ! It is a zoo- snap , Radu. I was acting bold to stand in front of it because there were strong steel bars restricting it ! It may be within the cage , but, you see, a lion is a lion ! :) !

      Thank you very much !
