[QUOTE="bryanpereira, post: 272266, member: 21666"] Thought I would post this unique sight from 2007. I came across this scene while on a Kenya/Tanzania safari. One tree with two lions at the base and a leopard in the top branches. The tree was to big to get both in animals in one frame and I was quite close (besides shooting wide angle they would have been tiny) Just to give you an idea of positioning and scale ive attached a shot from a cheap panasonic that happened to have the widest lens I had on hand. In the 30 years Ive been taking photo safaris I've never come across a moment like this. I probably wouldnt have shot the lions or the leopard had they just been on their own, as you can see photographically the images (composition, etc) are poor, of course if it was today I would switch to video mode for a quick movie with a couple of zoom ins. Im going again in August and October so you never know what might come up! its the unpredictability and opportunities that I love Nikon D80 500mm f6.3 1/750 iso 400 panasonic point and shoot 17.4mm [ATTACH=CONFIG]75359._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]75361._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
