    Another Antelope.

    Oribi are rarely seen (at least by me)

    This was one of my initial reasons for visiting Kidepo, taken on 14th June 2012

    A delicate looking subject, has the appearance of a slightly oversized Dik Dik.

    Steve,

    It is certainly a "Dwarf Antelope", in height it is about the same as a Dikdik, but weighs nearly twice as much

    Nice clear shot of a hard to capture antelope but I think it could do with a little more 'pop' as it seems a little dull on my monitor. One I'd be more than happy to have.

    Nice, only thing I'd try is flipping it left-right

    Nice sighting Ken, good side profile though it does look a tad flat...perhaps just a slight tweak to curves and then dodging the eye to give it more life?

    I would disagree for the same reasons as the previous time...
