Happy to be the overall winner of the Africa Geographic Photographer of the Year.
A lion cub tries to nudge dad, but the male is grumpy. At the click of the shutter, a fly passes through the focus point and the pupil of the eye. The blunt teeth indicate an old male – but clearly, one still to be feared. Cubs always tread lightly around the males, weary of a swipe.
Photography of the highest order. It has been said the more you practice the luckier you get.
This shot is the result of thousands and thousands of discarded shots.
Well done.
Thank you very much!
