Description: Is that an Instant Regret of what I just did?

Story from behind the lens: Like any other day we set out on an early morning game drive and were busy shooting the hot air balloons on the back drop of a sunrise when were received a radio call of this Lion pride with cubs... we rushed to the suggested location to find cubs playing around - it was indeed a sight to behold and capture. We then sighted on one side a Lion along with a lioness and a cub - it just drew my attention - could see the cub in a playful mood and hitting upon the Lion when suddenly the Lion got irritated and snarled at the cub - you could see the immediate effect of the same - while I was trying to capture all this emotional drama and various expressions unfold - just loved the way he stuck his tongue out as if in regret of probably getting irritated a bit too much - Expressions say it all I guess !!
