Photo of a lioness from a magazine cover
Beautiful photograph of a lioness from a magazine cover.
I came across the magazine by chance, when I was staying at a guest-house, during a visit to Thailand some years ago. I don't know the name of the photographer, but I'd like to send him or her my compliments here, for giving us such an incandescent picture - I love the intense, fiery light in the lioness' eyes.
It makes me remember....... There was a time,once, at Nairobi Safari Walk, in Kenya, when I was just a few inches away from a lioness. Only a wire fence separated us. The heat that radiated from that fiery being... I could actually feel it blasting outward - it was like standing in front of a gigantic fire - a furnace.
Mind you, that particular lioness was in a calm and tranquil mood. She'd simply come up to the fence out of curiosity. I stood there quietly with her, for a few moments. And yet, I could still feel the immense, tremendous lion-fire - like an aura....... Unforgettable.......
