Hi
On a chilly early morning in the Mara,we watched this lone hyena chase down a wildebeest over two hundred metres,catch it in the long grass and despatched the poor beast in a few minutes. The actual gore was hidden by the long grass but when it stopped to look up,the ensuing image spoke volumes of the reality of the food chain! Your comments will be much appreciated. Thanks!

Sorry Sid
Just re attached the image. Thanks.

Very nice image and well composed. Blood covered head is fantastic. Nice details and exposure too.
I would crop little from the bottom to off center the subject. Very nice job.

Very dramatic capture. Nice composition and great eye contact and interest.

ON my calibrated monitor the images looks quite dark. I tried a simple mid-tone boost in levels and it perked up a lot.

The blood puts it over the top with the alert look and good head position. I agree with John on it looking a bot dark.
