Wow, where did you take this, Sid? I like the rim light and foggy feeling. Maybe adding a little bit of blacks to the neutrals in selective colors, just on the animal, as not to loose the mood of the picture. The face could use a little ore sharpening and a touch of fill light at conversion.
It must have been really thrilling to see one!

Love the lighting on this subject! A simple but pleasing comp. The vegetation coming into the bottom of the frame is a bit distraction and could be cloned out. Well done!!!

[Julie Kenward]

I agree with the others...this is a very nice image with beautiful lighting - tweak it a bit and it will be really special!

[Jim Caldwell]

Nice shot Sid - I agree also it could use just a bit more contrast, but how many chances do you get to photograph a water buffalo!!

[Alfred Forns]

You do like the back lit images and make them work Sid !!! Agree with the mentioned tweaks !!!! Really nice !!!!!
