 Stupid last minute mentality. Had a meeting tonight, came back and had to help someone restore deleted mailboxes. All editing and selecting time gone because I had postponed the work for the challenge till the last hour. :(

So a quick edit of this one, the lion Singa (or Arusha or Ti-Cuna) at the Artis Zoo. No time to check out other stuff.
This is an almost 100%crop of the original file. 800px to 640px on the widest side. The original is a full body shot, but I wanted it closer.

Editing = blending two seperate black and white conversions, little bit of dodging and burning, cropping, sharpening. Took out tons of moire with Capture NX but did nothing apart from that.
