Sharing three different portrait photos and still staying home

Still staying home and looking forward to end this quarantine and borders to open. They said that end of May could be the time when we will be able to travel to our neighbour country, Croatia. Looking forward to that!
Untill that, I will share three different portrait photography.

Photo is from 2015 when we were on the travel in Namibia. During our safari drives we spoted several lions, but that one was the first one and most photogenic. He was just laying around and checking his visitors. OK, he could find himself a place without a poo, but still good animal portrait :)
That photo is also my entry for African Wednesday Challenge hosted by @czechglobalhosts.

My second photo is an entry for portrait photography contest. This week I will try with young boy who greeted us at oir arrival to Himba tribe. He looked like some gangster, but he was polite and showed us around.

The third one is B&W portrait as this is the theme of @derangedvisions contest for this week. Story behing that photo is that children there doesn't even know how thry look like. They have no mirrors. I found that very interesting, as they first saw themselves when I took a photo of them and show it to them. After that all wanted to grab the camera to take photos.

Awesome shots. I know exactly what you are talking about with the children getting excited about seeing themselves and wanting to hold your camera.

I have still never been to Africa (well apart from Egypt).

Would love to go on safari; but would need to get a lens sponsor ;-)

Egypt is not Africa ;)

Ohhh safari is really amazing! I love wildlife photography and also just spotting wildlife.
But it is not only safari as Africa offers much more. Feel free to check out my travel story (from Namibia), first series was posted on Monday, second one will be (hopefully) next Monday.
