Thanks Bosscat and Buxton. That slightly stressful time (in the most relaxed setting) where the light is amazing, but fading fast, and the action is building. You're willing the 2 to come together, in a suitable manner. There were 4 lion cubs, and they were chasing each other up and down this tree, but quite often with their backs to us, or with eye obscured by grass, or crossover between them. This was one of the rare moments, right as the light was going, where the scene worked.
