Unfortunately (for us) due to very good rains the grass was very long in Uganda, this made it virtually impossible to get images of this beauty which were clear of pesky grass even on the head.
This one was taken in Toro-Semliki Reserve, Uganda, 19th June 2012
Very nice and clean portrait, with overall very good quality and good BG. Fore some reason I thing If it was a predator everyone would say WOW (me too- I guess ) - I think it is very lovely displaying all the other animals too. So thanks for that.
Thanks everybody for commenting, much appreciated.
Gregor,
Thank you for appreciating the "lesser" animals, I think variety is very important and like to share my luck. The grip of the "Big 5" is everywhere
Morkel,
Are you trying to indicate in a roundabout manner that the nose is OOF.
Nice pose and good BG. DOF and fine detail looks good...Have you considered a CW rotation to make it upright and straight in the frame...Just a thought!
