Antelope for a change

[Morkel Erasmus]

Just to show you I do photograph the bucks. :S3:
I'm off on my maiden visit to Etosha, so I thought a Springbok would be apt, albeit taken in the Kalahari after some good rains.
See you all in a week or so! :cheers:

I like the springbok offset against the green, though I feel you could push the image more and give some bite.

Perhaps it feels a little too centred? Though did not crop for RP.

Enjoy your trip.

Hi Morkel - simple yet effective. Not so easy to isolate a single springbok. The changes Russell made are subtle but improve the image. I also thought it was a little centered and would take a little from the rhs. Have a great time in Etosha.

Lovely image and the RP really helps to make it pop. Agree on a tad off of the right, but wouldn't mind a little less on the bottom instead of the top. Green is a perfect backdrop for this gorgeous buck.

The Pastel colored grass makes the springbok stand out perfectly also good head angle which shows the head and horns. Would prefer a bit more room in front. This is a eye catching image.
