Hi Ken,

I can't comment on any blue cast as I am not on my home computer. The eyes seem pretty sharp especially for 1/50th.

Cheers

Very deep breath. No blue for me today - or no more than to be expected. These are a very uncommon animal, aren't they?

Why didn't you bump the ISO? Grab shot?

[Ken Watkins]

Paul.

I have no idea why I did not set the ISO higher, this body is passable at 800.

The Nyala is not rare but it is usually only found in limited areas of Southern Africa.

Very nice Ken. Looks real good. Done well with the comp and sharpness. No blue..:):)
