Editor’s Note: Each week we’ll be featuring members of the Photofocus community.  Part of our New Year’s resolution is to focus on new and emerging talent.  As such, Melissa Niu will personally select images from our readers and feature them here on Photofocus.

Today’s featured photo is chosen from ViewBug (The World’s Best Photo Contests) community.

“This photo was taken in Kenya, at the Masai Mara, in September 2013. I used my Canon 1DX camera with a Canon 600mm f4 L IS Lens. We sat watching this family of lions for about an hour, 7 cubs and two lionesses looking after them, this little one stuck close to his aunt while watching the herds of wildebeest in the distance so I waited till the heads were lined up and opened up my aperture to f4 so the little cub was in focus and his aunt was just out of focus.” – Mark
