Hi Morkel - I like the low key treatment and the conversion as well as the low pov. It appears oversharpened to me though.
TFS,

Hello Morkel,
How come you went all the way to Zimanga and you did not pop in to say hello to me in Hluhluwe
I really like this, it has an arty feel to it. Well processed too. Every now and then you come up with something really unusual and original and I find that exciting.
I do agree this appears over-sharpened, but at the same time I am not sure it would have the same effect if the sharpening was less. This works for me as is. Well done, the framing is great and I like the expression from the hippo, the mean looking eye, the aggression.
Thank you for sharing Morkel, a real pleasure to view.
Have a great week-end,

Have a great week-end,
This was in June 2014 eh 
I will look at it again but the drops lose their impact if they are not "crisp".

Morkel, no excuses:) When you decide to come back to Zimanga, let me know...
Agree about the crispness, this is why I said this works for me as is. No need to look again IMO.
I am planning a trip to Zimanga soon, I have not seen the overnight hide yet...BTW, they have lions too now.
Nite Morkel, and have a great day tomorrow:)

Nicely processed mono here Morkel, it's the crispy water drops that adds contrast and impact, the visible eye and framed open jaw all working nicely.
