Nice to see these from a "foreigner", Andreas...(Ken, you don't count coz you live here :w3)...
A special park with some special mammals. Nice light and clean BG...well exposed as the blacks have detail (those in the shadow are more choked up but that's to be expected).
Yesterday the majority of the higher roads in the Park were closed due to heavy snowfall...would be awesome to photograph there in these kinds of conditions!

Hi Andreas, simple, yet sweet. Like the smooth, mottled BKG, with excellent detail in the subject.


the Park were closed due to heavy snowfall...would be awesome to photograph there in these kinds of conditions! Unique I think Morkel.

What with that cold of yours, anyway, it probably would have melted and then you would need a raft :bg3:

Beautiful light and colors. I like the angle and the Zebra looking at the camera.

Great DOF and colours! Like the eye contact, but some of the whites look slightly hot, especially on the face...

[Gregor Bergquist]

Great pose and light. You captured a very photogenic subject. Great one!
