This sequence is a snap of a lioness who was sitting
on the hill watching the gnus go by. (Next to the yawning
hippos, but off to the side, this one. It was a good corner. ;-)
Anyway, she knew she couldn't catch the gnus, but she did see
the warthog. The gnus see her, start running, but she
doesn't go after them. I think these photos are actually in
order. I also have this on video. Pretty cool. Maybe I'll
post it after compressing it better.
Oh, she didn't catch the warthog, either.
Kenya and Tanzania, Summer 2000.
Scanned from 6x4 prints of 35mm film
with a not-too-good scanner.
Released to the Public Domain,
but I would appriciate hearing about
commercial use of the photos.
