Nominated for understatement of the year! :-) Fabulous set is probably an understatement also. Or wonderfull.
Incredible set might work. Or maybe unbelievable. Harry PS That's one helluva cat.

I have a few questions concerning the technique used.
Why didn't the spot light alarm or disturb the lions? Are the animals used to it and have learned it is not a threat? Do some animals react differently to it than other species?
Also, are the lights in a fixed position or can they be moved or adjusted according to the situation and movement of the subjects? Lighting is key and the outfitter seems to have figured it out well.
Good work.

This was new to me as well. I ask about the light and these animals are accustomed to vehicles and lights at night are not unusual. Cats are ok with the light, however they did say you should not shine a light at animals like Impala as it does effect their sight and in the few minutes it takes their eyes to adjust they are vulnerable to animals like lions. Some places use a red light as it does not effect the eyes like white light. So for animals other than cats, elephants etc, they may use red light after dark. They used the red light to light our way home on the dirt road as to not bother the animals. The lights were large flashlights. We had 2 vehicles and one would shine on the cat. If it moved we moved and the flashlight moved! I guess a lot of places do this, it was my first time!
