Lioness and Cubs, by Gabriele Ferrazzi

This photo was made in Tanzania. After a long day in the Ngorongoro crater we had the honour to meet a lions family. The male was just around them to control the area, and the cubs could play together. This one is one of my favorite photographs from my 6 months long trip through Africa, where I have visited 13 countries.

Photograph Location: Ngorongoro | Tanzania

Photographer:Gabriele Ferrazzi (Rome, Italy) Registered
Gabriele Ferrazzi was born in Rome in 1982, and lives there, but the majority of his shots are from all around the world. He has done a long walk from Cape Town to Istanbul with an overland truck, and his next mission (dream) will be to drive from Rome to Sydney with a car… He likes to define himself as a travel photographer, but in general all his shots are expressions of his vision and his passions. Usually he uses Canon cameras and professional lenses to have the maximum quality. He is 29 years old, and just wants to travel and do photography for the rest of his life. He wants to meet different people, different cultures from every corner of this planet and really start to understand this world.
