Lion Charge

Love this photo. The "Photo of the Week" at Photo.net. The photographer has a unique way of capturing wild animals using wide angle lens. No telephoto involved but he isn´t completely crazy and doesn´t want to be eaten.

Marsel is one of the best but he does use a lot of long lenses. Still an incredible shot. His site is squiver.com.

Cool technique with remote shutter release from inside the car on this one. Nice shot.

Incredible!

I found out quickly how hard it is to get animal shots in Africa - I felt like a complete rookie. . .

Lion pic was not shot with a telephoto. So all the more impressive.
