    Hi Rachel, lucky you to see a rhino. I like the head on view. The light was strong, but you handled it well. If it were mine I'd crop tighter top, bottom and left. TFS. Loi

    Wonderful specimen here, nice pose and angle and am glad he had lifted his head up a bit, many times these guys are continuously grazing and it takes many minutes of waiting for that head lift! Well done.

    Hi Rachel, this guy really did like to pose for us, I think he just wanted to say hello. Like the slight off-set position in frame, but a sliver off the top could help perhaps?

    FYI there are marches around the world today to highlight the plight of the Rhino.

    Such tiny little eyes on these guys! I like this pose. The horn has a nice little bit of edge lighting to make it stand out against the body. I also like the BG tree, its shape kind of mirrors the rhino. I like the comp as is but could also see a somewhat tighter crop as an option.
