I like the animal flow very much Would consider making it more of a pano Will help out the sense of motion and make the animals larger in frame !!! Excellent !!!!

Wow thats a lot of grass compared to my last visit therLove the line of wildbebeest moving into this image. A bit to much FG for my taste but you have the horizon on the upper third line.. Wonder what it would look like with more sky less FG??

If possible, I would have composed with the wildebeest at the bottom of the frame and more sky, though the sky looks unremarkable. If possible, I would have moved myself more to the right. A longer line of wildebeest would have helped.
