    Fantastic action and point of view Morkel. I like the colour tones and the interaction between the two.

    Superb detail and action you have captured her mate. Colours look perfect and great clear surroundings. I like the trunk up on the far youngster.

    Hi Morkel - I also agree. Fun interaction with nice details and tones. Only thing that would improve it for me is a little better angle to camera. Water and splash add to the image for me.

    TFS,

    Hi Morkel i like the various tones/colors you present here .Great detail and overall contrast .
    Action nicely captured , but agree with Rachel the angle is not a fortune . Not much you can do about .

    TFS Andreas
