Another of those “oops - too close!” moments on my Dragoman trip around Southern #Africa in 2011 (see my post from a couple of days ago for an accidental close-up of a giraffe). This #lion was having a #lazy morning in the #Ngorongoro Crater, #Tanzania 🇹🇿, just a few metres from our #safari truck. My #300mm lens got me right in his #face! #LifeAtExpedia
