“A glimpse of a moment caught on my remotely controlled camera. The lioness who accompanied the lion then went off with the camera.⁣

It’s all about the small things and because all this happened just before 6.50 am, there was enough morning dew to give the lion’s mane a tiny rinse.⁣

We recovered the camera some time later and it was quite a thrill to see the last image the bitten camera had taken. Remotes are a low percentage play, but when they come off and the subject is looking strong, they transcend hand held work because of the proximity and the angle of view.⁣

He really did put on The Morning Show.⁣

There is no doubt that this photograph will be in much demand. I certainly want it for my wall.” – David Yarrow
