About the Item
We had a 5 hour drive from Nairobi to Masai Mara. The first thing I told my guide was that the only reason I was there was to take photographs where an average visitor cannot. In order to do that we might have to break a few rules. First stop was Masai Mara. I was there for only 3 days, and during these 3 days my guide was talking about this young lion, Golden Boy. Not only him, but we did not even see a single male lion until the very last day. We checked out from the camp and before driving towards Nakuru we spent a few more hours in the park. As we were driving towards the gate, my guide got a phone call from one of his friends and asked me if I wanted to see the lion he was talking about the whole time. YES PLEASE! Within 30 minutes we got to him. He was on a hill top with only one more jeep around. I said to my guide, maybe it's time to break the rules a little bit. I got my cameras ready and we went off road for a bit. We ended up just next to him. In order to take these shots I had to leap out of the window a little bit so that I could have the sky behind him without grass in the background. As soon as I did that he turned his eyes towards me. I raised my head and looked into his eyes. Majestic! Within 3-4 minutes I took the shots I wanted and just enjoyed looking at his eyes for the remainder of that 5 minutes we spent together. I left him but I couldn’t stop looking at my camera and his photographs the entire time we were driving back to Nakuru. Later I learned more about this lion. His name is Olobor, which means ‘the calm one’ . He is anything but calm. I keep seeing his videos or reading about him online. There is a video out there him standing his ground against 15 hyenas, killing one and injuring a few. He is so pretty but very violent! I love that about him!
