Another old one, inspired by my editing of our video from Etosha 2008

This one is from 4th September and features a traditional Etosha grey and dusty sky:w3

good side profile here Ken
BG works very well
if anything I wish the eyelashes were more 'open' :bg3:

Hi Ken, Great horns! I agree with Morkel's comments. Techs and IQ look good.

TFS,
Rachel

Thanks for your comments, they are much appreciated.

Unfortunately in common with most of the genus Alcelaphini long eyelashes are the norm.

Indeed. In this case a lift of the head would've gotten the result :w3

I like this simple, profile portrait Ken. Nice colors throughout and I especially like the grayish blue up top. Details in the horns are nice and the overall image has a nice creamy look to it.
