The backlighting and black and white treatment work very well together Lennart. I like this image a lot. The relative positions of the two lions and the way they fill the space works extremely well. I also like the contrasting expressions, both of which are quite powerful.

Great subject, nice B&W and I really like their shining manes.
The frame needs some more canvas at the bottom and I find oof grasses bit disturbing.

I really like the composition, and the way that the tip of the near lion’s tail anchors the lower left corner of the frame. Nice image Lennart.
