Not really one of those spot the animal as its rather obvious haha. But anyhow, I liked the way the plant and the rocks composed with the hyrax, and so I liked the shot. Any ideas? I recommend right clicking on the image and seeing the image in a new tab as it helps with verticals.

Unfortunately, I think the Hyrax is a bit lost in this frame.. Nice to see animals in context sometimes but in this case I think I would have opted for more animal and less context...if that were possible anyway. The problem I have is that details on the animals are too compromised, maybe its just my problem but...
I quite like it Dvir. I do wish the hyrax was looking straight at us, but looking top right corner is better than looking directly right (as there's less space to look into).
Won't be everyone's cuppa-tea, but works for me...perhaps lowering contrast on the rocks and branches will help the hyrax stand out more?
I like it too. Perhaps Morkel is right, you can bring the subject out by reducing the contrast on the rocks a bit. This image is very "true to nature", since these little chaps love a rocky environment and this is their natural habitat. Amazing how they can climb to such heights and how agile they can be, despite their plump and cute appearance Well done on capturing this, something different and I like your approach here, subject well placed within the frame and some nice detail on the Hyrax too
By the way, we have a cute name for this species here in South Africa...we call them "Dassie", where the plural is "Dassies" Hope to see some more from you Dvir
