Really really really close

[Fotografer]

I was in the zoo and got the chance to see the lion feeding from the other side of the enclosure. I made the first shot with a 50mm and it isnt cropped, so i think you can figure out how close i was to this very large cat. It really was amazing to be this close to one of these fantastic creatures. While it was laying there, it was protecting its pet-chicken from us humans and was roaring the whole time. Not only could i hear it really good, i could also feel it in my body. I can not really discribe it, but i was glad those bars were there. I would probably soil my pants if the lion would do that roar thing and the bars werent there</p>
