this is my favorite of all of the pictures, i think its my favorite because it looks beautiful, its clear, it looks like the lion is thinking something really emotional and it just looks beautiful. i like the way he took the portrait of the lion, it has great details and a great angle.
a rules that i see is evident are simplicity,because it has a plain background with nothing distracting so you can see and focus on the subject.
- He uses a Pentax 67II with only two fixed lenses.

The photos are my elegy to these beautiful creatures, to this wrenchingly beautiful world that is steadily, tragically vanishing before our eyes."
