Fun - great Andreas and a nice playful shot too.

Maybe going B/W, a faster SS and going with more DoF as the mud & tip are sharp, but less so on the face, but that could just be where the FP was placed???

Then maybe front focusing?

What a fun shot Andreas, love the behaviour and the composition. The mud flying off the horn is great. TFS.

[Andreas Liedmann]

Thanks Sanjeev for your feedback ... :wave:

A very pleasing image, compared to your best it falls a little short in terms of DOF and sharpness... but I'll let you off because it is so dynamic!

[Andreas Liedmann]

Thanks Jon ... well the techs were not ideal , did not expect the fast head movement , and I was not so fuzzed about fast SS in 2014 and how important it is . And I think I got away quite well at this size ... but could have been better with todays knowledge !!!

Cheers Andreas

A muddy rhino for sure. Detail does look pretty good in those dark tones.
