Michael’s Description:
It was a perfect evening with a gorgeous golden light in the Sabi Sands and the lion cubs were playing next to their mother. Suddenly the two cubs bravely walked away from their mother and headed towards the water to drink. We quickly got the vehicle into the correct position for some great photos and were extremely lucky to capture a beautiful moment of them drinking.
