いつも素晴らしい写真を拝見させています。ところで今現在私のフォローしている人のページがReader上で見ることができません。Ibaraさんの方ではどうでしょう。

こんばんは。こちらこそ、いつも素敵な詩をありがとうございます。わたくしも現在、フォロー中の（のはずだった！）ページが表示されません・・・また、何故か分かりませんが、日本語のコメントは「スパム」として認識されるようです。先ほど、やっと気付きました。謎です。
ご返信ありがとうございます。ルーマニアの人からも返事があり、WPの使用者は膨大で、そのようなトラブルは日常茶飯事。たいがいは少し経てば直るよ…、でした。：）
ご返信ありがとうございます。なるほど、暫く待てば直りますね。勉強になりました＾＾
おはようございます。
ご心配お掛けしてますm(__)m
昨年から体調を悪くしていたのですが、ほぼ回復しました。
写真も以前ほどではありませんが撮っていますよ。
WordPressのほうもいろいろ仕様が変わっているようですね。
私の方の言語設定を日本語にしないと日本語を受け付けないのでしょうか。
今日もよい一日を＾＾

Wonderful shot! Extraordinary!
Thank you! 🙂
井原様、御無沙汰しております。お元気でしょうか。このライオンさんはとてもご立派で誰にも怖る必要はありませんね。黒白は良く合っていますよ！

What a wonderful photo!
Thank you! 🙂
Beautiful dreamer, Takami. This picture is a perfect illustration of his wish for his vast savannah. I hope to see the King live tomorrow, if I’m lucky. Greetings from Nairobi.
Hello Helen,
Wow, Nairobi! I’m envious in a good way 😀 I really hope you can see the King live tomorrow too! Look forward to hearing about it 🙂
I could look at this photo for hours. To me it is like a personal reflection photo that is mezmorizing. It looks so majestic strong and powerful but at the same time loving and protective. Beautiful is an understatment. X
Thank you so much Gavin. It’s great to see you again. All my best to your family 🙂
That’s a beautiful image. I do really like animals but scared of wild ones.
Thank you so much for stopping by and commenting! I like animals too, and regarding wild ones I also prefer to keep a respectful distance 🙂
Best wishes,
Takami
Such a beautiful animal! You captured a perfect moment, a story.
Thank you Inese!
I try to convey each moment as a story, and glad it worked 🙂
It sure did!
Very regal animal… I think my cat Pharoah is related!
Thank you! Yes, I think they are indeed related 🙂
This is a majestic photo of a King dreaming of his homeland ~ a perfect title. You’ve captured his spirit so well. Wishing you a great day Takami.
Thank you Randall! It’s always great to receive feedback. I realise that the titles we choose for photographs are very important, in that they can affect how the viewer sees the photo. I take care to come up with appropriate titles for my photos. Sometimes, it’s more challenging than taking the photo itself 😀 I’m happy this majestic lion is receiving such a positive response. My small contribution to him.
Hope you have a great week ahead,
Takami
Wonderful shot!
Thank you Graham! 🙂
Hello dear Takami! Your photo is absolutely magnificent! It really highlights the beauty of such a proud and regal animal. I love the way the background echoes the lines of his beautiful mane. Your monochromatic treatment adds to the beauty and allure of this magnificent animal—your beautiful photo does it justice in every way. Wonderful work, my friend! Wishing you a wonderful weekend! :))
Hello dear Jeannie! Good morning from Tokyo 🙂
This was taken on the same day as “The Chase” with the new lens. The skies were overcast, which made for a very ‘moody’ atmosphere. I was some distance away from this lion, but the super-duper zoom allowed me to capture some moments of his expression. He is so naturally regal and handsome. I couldn’t help but wonder (from my human perspective) if there was something he could sense, that somehow he could feel his true homeland is somewhere far away…
One of the members of my photography club is in Kenya this month. So instead of being envious (although I mean it in a good way!), I decided to go out and experience special moments right near home. Thank you so much for your comment, my friend. Wishing you and yours a very happy Valentine’s weekend ❤
Fabulous photo of an incredibly beautiful lion!
Thank you Susan! I’m glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Wow! That is such a beautiful photograph!
Thank you, he is a beautiful lion 🙂
Beautiful lion… the sephia effect of this photograph is an achievement…. I love it… have a great weekend, dear Takami… Aquileana ⭐
Thank you dear Aquileana ❤ I am so happy you enjoyed this magnificent and noble lion. I wish you a perfect weekend too 🙂
His regal personae radiates like the sun…😉🦁
He is so regal. Thank you for your comment! 🙂
This photo is gorgeous!!!
I doubly agree
Thank you for your comment 🙂
Thank you, and God bless!
Beautiful image, thanks.
Thank you Bob, for stopping by and commenting.
Beautiful Takami, and the title is so appropriate!
Thank you Maria.
Best wishes,
Takami
wonderful capture!
Thank you! It was a special moment.
Love this photo, Takami! Of course, I love lions, lol. But this is a great photo with so much life and personality, and I think the sepia tones are wonderful and bring out the rich dignity of the animal. Beautiful.
Thank you Deb. I knew right away that b&w / sepia would be perfect for this image. It’s always nice to know that others enjoyed it too. And I think lions are very photographic in both colour and b&w 🙂

Stunning shot!
Thank you so much for the reblog!
It’s a treat — it’s such a beautiful photograph.
I’m honored!
Always stunning!
Thank you so much 🙂
Fabulous, as always.
Thank you Gigi ❤
I would certainly love to know what he’s thinking about. A truly beautiful animal, and a wonderful capture Takami. Thank-you for sharing this.
Hello my friend,
I too, would love to know what he’s thinking about. Would I be able to fathom his thoughts? He looked so regal, so majestic. But also as though he was longing for his homeland. At least, from my human’s point of view…
It is majestic and nostalgic, this King of animals. 🙂
Very nice picture, dear Takami.
I wish you a good day.
Hervé
Thank you my friend Hervé. He is very handsome and regal indeed 🙂
He really is a beauty.
Thank you! And thank you very much for stopping by and commenting 🙂
カッコイイですね！
どこのライオンですか😊
Nasuko様☆
こんにちは！いつもありがとうございます♡こちらはよこはま動物園「ズーラシア」のライオンさんです。一目惚れしてしまいました＾＾
O wow! Looks as if you were in Africa! This lion IS reminiscing!
Thank you Cindy-san ❤ So happy you could see this so soon 🙂
Fantastic photograph! I love his pose.
Thank you Mr. Nicodemas! He is naturally majestic and regal…
A handsome one!
Thank you Indah! He is very handsome and regal indeed ❤ 😀
Great one! I like your choice of black and white, and the depth of field. Even his lean toward the center makes it all work!
Thank you Jeff! I’m glad you agree with the black and white. When I was looking through the finder, I knew this image was meant to be in b&w. Likewise with the composition, so happy my ‘gut instinct’ paid off 😀
Beautiful shot!
Thank you Jill!
Hope the move is coming along well 🙂
Majestic!
Thank you, dear Kathy!
Your birds are very majestic too ❤ 🙂
Formidable and benevolent. Well done. 🙂
Thanks Doc! 😉 ❤
