Maybe this counts, maybe it doesn't... My Grandpa owned a lion when my mother was a child, I guess this is the only photo they have of it:



My attempt at retouch:

I've been put in charge of scanning a box filled with ektachrome. Like way too much ektachrome.

So I should have some stuff for this thread sometime soon*.

Yeah they are cool. My Grandpa was an interesting dude.

A bit of context for this one:



"Leo" the lion. Grandpa's pet lion he took out hunting occasionally. I posted a B&W photo of it earlier in the thread as a baby but so far this is the only other photo I have found of him.

I asked if he was always kept in that cage and the answer I got was "He was let out when we went hunting." Which kind of sucks. He apparently was sold to someone else fairly early in his life so hopefully he was given some better accommodations.

This particular slide had underexposure and bad color casting so I tried to save it as much as I could. Probably need to give it another go at some point.

Who knows! I can't get anyone to really ID people beyond a few notable characters like grandpa, grandma, aunt/uncle ______.
