Bum shot

Imagine having a great sighting.
A beautiful animal,lovely light, a gorgeous setting and.....
... the animal is only kind enough to show you his/her backside!
I guess I am not the only photographer who is going insane seing something like this,lol.

This year while we travelled through KTP we were coming closer to one of the boreholes south of Kalahari Tented Camp.
It was already a bit late, so we thought that we might already have missed the interesting sightings.
We very slowly made our way towards the 14th borehole when we detected a movement in the riverbed.
At first we thought Oryx, but very soon we realised that these was the typical walk of cats.
And indeed 5 beautiful Lions were making their way to the waterhole.
So we stopped right at the hole and waited for them.
One by one they arrived to have a drink.
And of course the inevitable happened.
One started to drink only showing us his bum and all the others, as if by command, bend their heads down to have a drink as well.

And believe me they were very thirsty......
