There is an old Yiddish proverb which says, The eyes are the mirror of the soul. And it is interesting that whenever there are eyes in a photo, our eyes are naturally drawn towards them. It's seems we instinctively know that true connection is made through eye to eye contact. To me, this magnificent lion speaks volumes as he gazes straight down the barrel of my lens into my eyes. You can see real strength and patience in his features he has an aura of calm and dignity about him. He is letting me know that he sees me and his intense gaze seems to be posing the questions, Who are you, and what are you up to? When I look at this photo, I feel like hes staring right through me, into my soul. He exudes such raw power and inner strength. Lions are the kings of the jungle. They dont seek votes or the approval of others. They have strength and power and they know their authority.
