    Morning colors and her Grace

    Thanks all for the responses. @ Rachel, thanks for the re-work and suggestions. I myself did something similar with toning down the bg as suggested by all but then came back to this original version just because for me it gave a true sense of the early light in Mana. Surely different pairs of...

    Theme Pile of Puppies

    Dumay, Visiting this again and again! Love the framing and energy here, especially the coincidence of just one eye visible from this pile! Being wild dog sighting starved (2 sighting were not enough at Mana Pools recently :e3), am thinking how fortunate you are to have the denning dogs as your...

    Theme Brothers of the Talek

    Winners - eye contact, the three huddling up, and the tails in the air! Agree with crop suggestions though. Shreyas

    Another Yawn

    An absolute cracker! Yeah, and the word is for about 8 pups there = more hunger! Wishing you all the luck for your trip! Shreyas

    Theme Giraffe Flehmen

    Stunning light, and those two with the chins raised look pretty comical. Agree with Rachel on the impala but nothing you could do and not a deal breaker by any means! TFS

    Morning colors and her Grace

    Hi all, This one is from one early morning encounter with a pride of Lions on a juv elephant kill. She had her fill earlier and was resting in shade on the other side of the road from where we were parked. She decided to then move slowly, probably to enjoy the warmth of the first rays. The...

    Theme Ele's from heaven

    Marc, Agree with all the praises above and it sure is quite artistic. Wondering why the RHS looks more damp.....perhaps closing the river? TFS

    Lioness

    You sure have a knack for these spotlit shots, Brendon! Love it!! She must be like paused in time for the sharpness at this shutter speed :bg3: All you need is some mist coming from her mouth next! Shreyas

    Icons of Mana Pools

    Hi all, Thanks for the input. The dodging/burning does bring it up a notch so thanks for the suggestion, Morkel! @ Marc, SLNP is high up the list and the images from the park makes it even more enticing. You don't know how bad you want to get to Mana though :w3 Cheers

    Icons of Mana Pools

    Hello all, Just returned from an epic 12 night adventure in Mana Pools. "Blown away" and "Awe-struck" have been my two favorite terms since then :bg3: The light in this patch of land is something else, especially around the floodplain....a blue haze from the Mopane woodlands and Albida forest...

    Theme Epic Etosha

    Lovely image and can't beat the POV on this series! Love the multitude of animals in the scene, the only thing missing here is an Qryx :w3 Shreyas

    Elandscape?

    Hi Ed, nice shot in great light plus a good sense of environment/habitat here. Funny how skittish these guys are but glad you got him looking straight. Cheers Shreyas

    Rowdy!

    Thanks Anette, Andre and Morkel! @ Morkel, this is one of the 3 brothers from the Olifantsbad waterhole (close to Okaukuejo). Let's see if you find them there in the following weeks .... pretty green about your upcoming trip :w3

    B/W Gemsbok

    Gabriela, this is a fine image :5 The popping eye contact, the galloping pose gives a sense of panic, and couldn't be better as it's heading towards you! My only wish that it was a little away from you (or if you had a shorter focal length), such that you had more control over the...

    Rowdy!

    Thanks for the suggestions, folks! I did work up the blues on the very bright stones, but will give it another look. Shreyas

    Three Cheetah Teens

    Excellent image, and I especially like the toning you've give it! Enjoyed it a lot! TFS

    Lions Portrait

    Quite an in-your-face shot! I like everything about the framing and composition, and would definitely look into slight burning of the highlights on the chin and under the nose. TFS
