Beautiful animal in its environment image, with great light.

I would love to see this area one day.

Great light and I really like the inclusion of the landscape. Could use just a little rotation.

Very nice environmental image that really shows the expanse. This would also work well as a pano with less sky.

TFS,

Nice critterscape Rakesh. Nice colors and exposed well in some nice light. Agree on the slight rotation and the pano crop idea is a good one. Well done.

your crop works well and the presentation is excellent, nice soft light and tones too...I love wide animalscapes like this :)

I agree with the comments above. Good work seeing the possibility here. Pano would work but original post has the big sky look I like. CCW Rotation needed.

Robert, I also wanted to mention CCW rotation, but looking at it again I noticed it seemed like there is a little rise/hill to the LHS which is also slightly in front of the ridge/hill in the background, which would make the "true horizon" rather straight as presented?? or are my eyes playing tricks on me this late in the evening? :e3

Love this image, really beautiful and takes me right to the area. Lovely light. Tend to agree with Morkel on the horizon, but a bit deceptive.

I like the wide open space you've captured with this composition. I don't think any rotation is needed.

I don't think any rotation is needed.

Me neither, the land is clearly sloping down to a river.
