I have processed them to look a little old fashioned in style.

Posted: Mon May 15, 2006 10:47 pmHi Matt. Great shots all of them. I think you could make the first shot even better by cloning over the table, perhaps with the background on the lefthand side, so it becomes more focussed on the lion - more portrait like.
I love my lions.
What lens was used to capture these majestic animals?
Cheers,
Owen.

these are lovely shots. The first one and the second one are absolute favourites, but I like all of them. Beautiful animals.

I love each and every one of these, but my pick is #1. The vignetting effect and the strong composition work well at bringing out the majesty of the king of the jungle. I even like the low sat, less pop, "old school" look for these which work well with the subject matter.

Great shots. The 1st is my fav with the strong compostion.
Not sure if it is just my monitor but there seems to be a strong green cast in all these shots.... was it intentional?

You may be right. I think the camera may have picked up a touch of green from shooting through the glass. It's a little more pronounced on my work computer than my home computer.

Posted: Tue May 16, 2006 12:03 pmWelcome back Matt These are some of the best shots from you, in at least, one week

Posted: Thu May 18, 2006 1:09 pmNice work on Jambo (aka Bruiser to his keepers). The young lion is his son and I guess he, and his sister, will be taken to Dubbo when the enclosure gets too small for four big cats.
I have a nice shot of the family when the cubs were very young.

Posted: Fri May 19, 2006 6:03 pmThese are all great! Even the one taken at "Tarong Park Zoo". I can see a slight green colour cast, but I love the PP treatment.
