Another one in the series of Hyaenas at night from my recents trips to the Sabi Sands. This one i kept in colour as i liked the green grass coming through which you dont get very often in these images.

Hi Brendon, the best so far IMHO.
Like it as presented, however if it was me, I would up the Brightness, the white in Levels and add a bit of Vib/Sat to 'the ring of fire' with a possible boost to the grass too, just to give a bit more colour/theatre to the overall 'look & feel'. Really like it, have you condidered flipping L & R?
Nice work.

Very well done! I think Steve's suggestion to add a bit more drama with the lighting is a good one. I very much like this approach with no distracting bkgd elements to allow the viewer to be totally immersed with the "presence" of the hyena. You captured a great head angle with both ears alert.
Hi Brendon - I too like it very much and as you say, the green grass adds to the image. Will be interested in seeing Steve's suggestions implemented.
