An African buffalo calfs enjoys the Masai Mara tall grass as he wanders with his herd. I hope you like the crop as I wanted to focus on the feeding behaviour and give some room in front of the calf & also show the surroundings. Or would you prefer vertical? It was overcast giving some soft light.
Nice rich colors and great details on the calf. That tongue reaching for the grass is an excellent capture! The crop seems awkward for me. Your calf is in exactly half the image, as well as being almost cut in half at his belly. I would prefer much less in front of the calf. You still see the habitat with a more vertical crop.
Hi Sanjeev - nice timing with the tongue flick. The detail and sharpness look good. The rp comp is better but I think you needed to go either tighter or have more room below. Also when you cropped you wound up with a dark border on the top of the image. There's a slight halo around the calf that's more prominent in the op than the rp. If it were mine I would burn or blend in the one brighter stalk above. Any idea what the white area to the right is?
Nice pose/expression here with the RP crop a definite improvement, Sanjeev!
There's a smoothness to the calf's coat that seems to have resulted from noise reduction? Did you apply any to the buffalo??
