Playful pride: Big cats and their cubs take time out to relax in the savannah sunrise

Tender moment: Incredible images showing a pride of lions in intimate and tender moments together have been captured on camera

Stretching out in the sun and playfully pawing at each other is all in a day's work for the Ngamo pride in Zimbabwe.
When they aren't chasing terrified beasts, they share intimate and tender moments - some of which have been captured here on camera.
The shots show five lionesses, four cubs and one male lion as they take some down time shortly after sunrise.

In the pictures the lions snuggle up in the open savannah grassland and show lots of love and affection for each other.

Snapped: 'At one point when the father came into the pride he was playfully growling at one of his cubs, who gave him a playful slap in the face. It was very sweet,' said the photographer

Carole, who only started taking wildlife shots in 2011, said: 'Lions have always fascinated me because of their power and the way they interact with each other.
'This family of lions were so relaxed here they didn't pay any attention to the car I was in at all.

Carole, who runs a clothes shop in Oostduinkerke, in Belgium, only took up wildlife photography after being inspired on a holiday to Botswana in 2010.
She added: 'When lions interact with each other in such a way as they do here, you feel very humbled to witness something as intimate as that.'
