This was at Lake Nakuru. There was a light drizzle and it was a good setting to shoot tame mammals, though the light was a bit low.

Nice side-on pose here Sanjeev. I think you would have been better off shooting without the converter here as it's just too tight top and bottom for me...you needed a sliver more "breathing room".
I'm seeing some magenta and blue coming through in the horns, the ears and the whites in general.
I wonder if using f8 would have rendered the falling raindrops more defined, as they add to the image for me?

Hi Sanjeev - Nice to see a tommy, so often overlooked photographically. Morkel covered all the major issues for me- tightness of comp and color casts. I also think the blacks on the tommy are a little choked and that the head can use additional sharpening.
TFS,

A little tight for me but a great looking animal with some nice IQ.

Very cute. Fantastic shot with great image quality. Like the soft light. The rain is a great bonus.

I like the shot. I agree with the rain giving this image something extra; I would also have like the drop to be more defined. IMHO the focus is on the horns and not the eye, which is a small nit as the overall IQ and mood set is awesome. TFS
