I don't like posting captive stuff, but with species like this I really have no choice. What I mean is I will never ever see any of the big game stuff etc in the wild .

Captive animals are still beautiful, John - and still test our shooting skills! I love this one - sharp & clear! Pity its eyes (probably its best assets!) were closed halfway. There might be a green-ish cast in the chin area - the guys with the real sharp eyes should rather comment on that!
Thanks both. I agree about the eyes but I had to shout to get it to open them a bit, It was asleep. The greenish cast may be reflection off the grass. I did some tests today on white card. In the open - 6 foot off the ground - ok - white.
Taken 2 foot off the ground ten seconds later - guess what - slight green dominance- note I didn't say cast !
Interesting.
On a slight ly diferent note - if a background or such an area has some magenta or whatever colour in it, then when does it become a cast if the colour was there in the first place ?
Beats me.
