Harshad's image reminded me that I had only posted a few of mine, so here is one poking his tongue out.

Nice light and eye contact Ken. Love the smile he is giving you. Image is nice and sharp. Comp wise maybe some off the left side of image (as we are looking at it) to take the head out of center, just my thoughts. Well done. TFS

A nice cheeky :t3 and low head on perspective here Ken agree on taking off centre a tad.

Thanks everybody, greatest thanks should go to Assam Wildlife for keeping this animal relatively safe, proof that it can be done.

Nice crisp photo Ken and I don't recall seeing a smiling rhino before. Great detail and colors as well, I don't mind the centered head.

Like the pose/expression here. I am fascinated by their skin-folds...very "prehistoric" compared to our African counterparts...:t3

OOps, Sorry! It was a mistake. I was too engrossed with the image and while typing, though I had Ken's name in my mind, I typed your name by mistake. Sorry again!
