EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a tender moment between an Asiatic lion and lioness as they engage in courtship while lying down. The powerful male lion gently places his large front paw on the neck of his mate, symbolizing both protection and affection. Photographed in the enchanting Gir National Park and Lion Sanctuary in India, this image showcases the beauty of these majestic creatures in their natural habitat. It is here, within this sanctuary, that one can witness the awe-inspiring sight of Asiatic lions roaming freely. The tranquility exuded by this couple is palpable through the lens of Christopher Gable and Sally Gable's camera. Their expert photography skillfully captures every detail - from the vibrant colors to the loving behavior displayed by these magnificent animals. In this horizontal composition, we are invited into a tranquil scene where two animals share an intimate connection amidst nature's splendor. With no people present, it allows us to truly appreciate their wildness and observe their mating rituals up close. Asiatic lions hold great significance as they are found only in this region of India. This print serves as a reminder of their rarity and highlights why conservation efforts are crucial for preserving these extraordinary creatures for future generations to admire.
