Hello Friends,
I didn't get around to do an RP to my previous WD image but thought this frame looked better in terms of colours so I am sharing it. Happy to have your comments and suggestions (which I take very seriously BTW:w3).
For those who have not seen my previous post or read the intro, I recently came across this pack of fourteen wild dogs in the local game reserve. The subjects were lazy and scattered all over the place, they seemed in great condition and their bellies full after performing a kill that very morning. Lighting conditions not great. Mostly overcast and the sun peeked through clouds from time to time, making things more difficult for me as I had to watch my camera settings all the time.
The main character is a male, on the RHS of the frame is the Alpha female and behind her another female. Not sure about the other two near the tree, just too far. Every now and then one character got up and walked around, no point in moving the vehicle because by the time we found the right spot another dog got up and there was action somewhere else, best not to disturb them and just hoped they came to us. Nevertheless it was a wonderful experience, WD are scarce in the Park and this was my first sighting in many years, I was extremely happy and excited to see them in such great shape.

Nikon D5
Nikon 500 F4
ISO 1600
F4.5

Cropped about 30% of frame to eliminate some unwanted elements, processed in LR and PSCC. Grateful for a spot in the BG between the tree branches where I found an almost perfect 50/50/50 in terms of WB.
Hope you all have a wonderful evening, H21:25 here so not much left of mine... I am off to the feathers soon
Thank you kindly for viewing, appreciated.
Warmest regards,
