Everyone's favorite animal photographer Sharon Montrose just did a photo shoot with a lion! Sounds terrifying to be in such close quarters (I would have died), but Sharon told me that they actually purr really loudly, which was "kinda soothing actually."



That would be amazing! :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome photos, but so not the experience for me (I'm scared of cats!)

I've heard that cats (including the big ones) don't purr in the wild. It must be their attempt at communication with us. They are gorgeous creatures.
ReplyDeleteWOW, stunning pictures!!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if her hands were just a little bit sweaty!! :)
This video brings on the water works EVERY time.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvCjyWp3rEk&feature=related
ReplyDeleteoh, what a handsome lion! we would be so delighted to have these marvelous photos in our humble little abode!
ReplyDeletexo,
sylvie of silver lining
oh my gosh. The expression on the his face n teh second photo is super adorable!!
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful! I've never been so close to a full grown Lion but I did carry 6 lion cubs while on holiday in Africa. They had the most limpid eyes and were as adorable as babies!
ReplyDeleteAmazing!!
ReplyDelete@jen - You own a mountain lion?? That's SO cool. I got to play with a one-month-old mountain lion at a zoo when I was in middle school, it was pretty much the cutest thing ever. :-)
I am a huge fan of her work.
ReplyDeleteDoing the giraffe for a project right now!
That is such a majestic looking animal. Such beautiful photography! Is it weird I also think it looks kind of cuddly?
ReplyDeleteWOW! This would definitely be a gnarly photo session! SO COOL! I would love to do that! Where did the lion come from? I'm loving her work, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeletemy favorite is the baby giraffe no. 3! i have seen some of her stuff before and i love it all.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in Africa I got to be in super close quarters with 6month and 9 months old Lions. And it's true.. something about them is a bit soothing.

That sounds like such an amazing experience! Great photos!
ReplyDeleteHa, ha! Nice! I actually have heard a lion purrr before! It's so adorable to see the king of the jungle PURR like a kitty cat! And I agree, kinda soothing. :)
ReplyDeleteHow majestic! I was in Africa once and was absolutely in awe of the lions I saw. Love these!
ReplyDeleteMy friend is part of 4H, an agricultural club here in Ontario. They were able to go to the Toronto Zoo after hours and even got to pet some of the animals! When they got to the lions, the female lion was literally just on the other side of a chain link fence. She was keeping an eye on my friends daughter and when she asked about it, the tour guide said the lioness had been eyeing her as food the whole time. Then the lion let out a loud road right in my friends face. She got some great photos though!
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful. Love her other work as well!
ReplyDeleteI love love love her prints. I think it would be pretty cool to be in a room with a real lion.
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to have been there! Big cats are my favorite animals...so beautiful! Plus..I'm a Leo so that might be why I like them so much too ;)
ReplyDeleteI love Sharon's photos, especially this one. I did a walk with 4 lions while I was visiting a game reserve in Zimbabwe. I still get butterflies when I think about what it was like to see them walking towards me!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous images...as usual!
ReplyDelete-Jordana
Holy crap, I love these! Great find, I think I might have to buy a few.
ReplyDeleteI have such a crush on lions! Maybe it's because I'm a Leo or I had a thing for jungle animals when I was a kid......Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeletejust soooooothing enough for them to get you where they want you and then AHHHHHHH you're done for.
ReplyDeleteher work is so beautiful. i'd love to put that pic of the lion like 2 feet off the floor over where i put my cats food and water bowl, so everytime she goes for a drink, she sees it.

ReplyDeleteI did it. I purchased the lion print. Love him so.....Lions make me feel courageous :)
ReplyDeleteIf I could be in the same room as a purring lion I think I would die of happiness. (hopefully not because of being eaten by a lion first!)
ReplyDeleteShe is so amazing. I want her job :)
ReplyDeleteLove it! the goat is still my favorite though.:)
