There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.
Michel Zoghzoghi:" Masai Mara, Kenya. It was early in the morning and Scarface, one of the most dominant males in the Mara, had just broken up a fight between 6 lionesses. A young female had ventured into a territory controlled by five lionesses and almost paid with her life for this mistake. Tensions were high and one of the five lionesses became aggressive with him. He chased her away. As he was running with his beautiful mane in the wind and a topi watching in the background, I barely had enough time to increase my shutter speed. The early morning light was faint so I also had to increase my ISO in order not to be underexposed. (Canon EOS 1DX - 500mm - F4 - 1/500 - ISO 1600) "
