Expedition in the marsh

In this striking photograph by Gian Luigi Fornari Lanzetti, a lioness is a mere pinprick on a sea of green in the Ndutu area of Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park. “After a while, the solitary lioness appeared… walking through the long, green grass that covered the swamp,” Lanzetti said. “Her fur was shining visibly against the contrasting green of the field below, while her curved tail added a unique quality to the shot. Later on we understood the reason she had gone to that swampy area — to breastfeed her two 20-day-old cubs that she had hidden in there.”
